Club sports

Get involved and join a club sport to compete with friends.

USD Club Sports are created and operated by students who have a strong desire to compete or participate in a sport throughout their college career, and exist to develop students' skills, dedication, and interest for specific sports.

Each club may set their level of activity, but the opportunities range from recreational to regional and national intercollegiate competition.

Club Sports continue to grow primarily due to strong student leadership, which is one of a variety of life skills that students can develop through their participation at the USD Wellness Center.

Each club is represented on the Club Sports Council and is encouraged to become a member of a recognized National Governing Sport Body.

Success story Lily Louise smiling.
The University of South Dakota has so much to offer if you simply seek it out - I have been able to join clubs, volunteer, be a collegiate athlete and attend sporting events while getting a top notch education. Vermillion is a special place.
