Mission Membership Benefits
Contact: Email group officers
Mission Successful clubs are student-initiated and student managed. Sport Clubs fills the void between intramural sports activities and intercollegiate athletics. There is an emphasis on the learning experience for members through their involvement in leadership opportunities. These opportunities include: fundraising, public relations, organizing, administrating, budgeting, and scheduling.
Membership BenefitsSport Clubs participation enhances the student's overall education. Skills that students learn include time management, writing and implementing their constitution, recruiting members, establishing dues, and gaining team support. The leadership training and opportunities available through active participation with a Sport Clubs team are intended to benefit the participant throughout their lifetime.
Pick a club you're interested in and email the club president for the practice schedule, club meetings, and more. For more information, contact the Sport Clubs Office at 409-880-7862 or sportclubs@lamar.edu. Sign up will be done through LUHUB, simply search the club and click to join.
More details required: Sport Clubs are open to both Lamar University- Beaumont and Lamar Institute of Technology Students. However for NIRSA sports and most National Governing Bodies, clubs must represent only one campus. LIT students may practice with Lamar Sport Clubs, however in NIRSA sports, LIT students are not allowed to represent the college by competing with the team in any games or tournaments. Some NGBÔÇÖs may allow LIT students to compete with Lamar- Beaumont teams, if this is the case, Sport Clubs must receive verification in writing that this is allowed. However, an all LIT club may compete as one school. Former NCAA athletes are eligible to participate in Sport Clubs, however NIRSA and other NGBÔÇÖs have limits on the number of former NCAA athletes a team may have. Clubs must check eligibility rules for each event they compete in to ensure they abide by NGB guidelines
