How To Create A New Club

Process

If you're interested in starting a new club sport, begin by contacting the Club Sports Office and completing the New Club Sport Interest Form. After that, you’ll initiate the chartering process by attending a chartering workshop hosted by Student Activities Center (SAC). Once your student organization is officially chartered, you'll participate in a second chartering workshop with the Recreational Services Club Sports Program to finalize the process.

If your club is recreational and you intend to request funding, you must attend a budget workshop through ASUNM.

If your club is competitive and you intend to request funding, you must attend a budget workshop through Recreational Services.
