A comprehensive sports club program is an integral part of campus recreation. It fills the void between intramural sports activities and intercollegiate athletics. Sports clubs give the university community an opportunity to participate in competitive sport activities, learn new skills, improve skill levels and enjoy the recreational and social fellowship derived from sports involvement. Sports clubs have existed at Case Western Reserve University for several years.
A sports club is a student organization recognized by the Physical Education and Athletic Department, that 
has been formed by individuals motivated by common interests and a desire to participate in a favorite sport activity. Sports clubs are governed by the rules and regulations governing all student organizations. Participation is voluntary.
The Sports Club Program is coordinated by the Intramural Director in the Physical Education and Athletic Department, who reviews disbursement of funds, schedules facility space, and uses best effort to promote the objectives of the program.
