About the Sports Club Council

The Sports Club Council was created in the Fall of 2000. The goal of the SCC is to represent recognized sport clubs at RU that continuously remain in good standing and represent RU in a positive light. 

Campus Recreation saw the need to create the SCC for sport clubs that have unique needs from that of other clubs. The SCC, which is funded directly by Student Finance Committee, helps provide partial funding to those organizations that can meet it's standards. It's founding members included the Redcoats, Ice Hockey, Men's Rugby and Women's Rugby.

Since the Fall of 2000, the SCC has helped develop 16 sport clubs with more than 330 participants. These clubs participate in collegiate leagues similar to those of varsity teams. Most of the SCC members have participated in National Tournaments throughout the U.S. and achieved an abundant amount of success.
