Sports Clubs

Sport Clubs highlight the leadership skills and athletic talents of the RU student body. The Sport Club Program is designed to serve individual interest in different sports and recreation activities. The activities that the club sport teams provide range from very competitive, which travel and play intercollegiate, to the recreational and instructional, which conducts activities such as basic skill instruction. Every sport club team is a chartered student organization and administered entirely by the students of Radford University under the supervision of Campus Recreation.

For more information about RU sport clubs, please contact the RU Sports Club Council.

Eligibility: Students of Radford, undergraduate and graduate, are eligible for club membership. New students as well as upperclassmen are encouraged to join. Individuals must complete a release form prior to participating in their first practice.
