Leadership & Support

Student Leadership Opportunities with the Club Sports Program

Team Officers:

All Club Sports teams are organized and operated by students within each individual sport. Each team has a board of leaders voted on by the membership of each individual team and it is outlined in each team's constitution.

Minimum positions include: President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasure, Club Sports Council Representative; teams may require additional positions based on the activity of the Club and the governing body.

These positions each must have an active role in the administration of their Club team. Without all of the leadership working together, a teams will not reach it's full potential, both on and off the "field".

2013-2014 Team Officers are due to the Club Sports Office by Wednesday, April 10 by New Officer Submission Form.

The Executive Officers:

Executive Officers are elected to represent the entire Club Sports program to campus administration. They also serve to be the liaison between the Club Sports program and the leadership of the teams.

If you are interested in running, you need to be available for every CS Council Meeting on Wednesdays at 5pm.
