Club sports are a great way to continue to develop your
athletic abilities. Students can compete
at a higher level than intramural sports.
However, club sports are not as demanding as the stress and
time-consuming commitment that goes with varsity sports. In summary, club sports are the perfect
balance.
Club Golf President Christian Dolan
Personally, I play on the Club Golf Team and it has been
nothing but a great experience. As a
First Year I joined the team during the fall tryouts. Immediately the older members of the team
made all of us feel very welcome.
Becoming a part of a group that shared common interests and passions as
me was most important as I was just beginning to get my grips on the University
and I now had a support group behind me.
Last semester, the team practiced every Friday at Birdwood
Golf Course, when conditions allowed.
Once a week is not too demanding and is very manageable with any
schedule, certainly one of the great things about club sports. Throughout the season there were two
tournaments where the team traveled to compete with other colleges in the
region. The team did extraordinarily
well and qualified for the national competition where they placed third
overall. In general, I would say that
club sports, like Club Golf, are perfect for anyone who wants to compete with
other colleges but not at the intense levels of varsity.
