Ashland
University started Sport Clubs during the 1999-2000 school year.
These clubs give the Ashland University student an opportunity to compete
at a competitive level against other Universities or to just
have a more organized and structured group. These clubs will
give the Ashland University community many recreational activities that they
could not receive from other aspects of campus recreation;
Ashland has formed eight Sport Clubs for the 1999-2000 school
year.
The Sport Clubs Program at Ashland University will be very
successful, due in part to the philosophy of the Intramural
and Campus Recreation program. Any student who wants to start
a club will be given consideration. If the interest within
the campus community is big enough, the Sport Clubs Program
will listen to the idea. Another reason for success of the
program will be the leadership and creativity shown by the
student managers. The program must have a student dedicated
enough to take control of the program. The leadership displayed
by the student manager will be the main factor in the program's
being successful.
There are four types of clubs that can be formed and they
are:
Recreational Clubs: Program's that reserve
facility space to play their sport, socialize, and to have
fun without the competitive nature. Some of these clubs charge
dues for membership.
Competitive Clubs: These clubs compete with
other university or town sponsored sport clubs and travel
to different events/games throughout the year. these clubs
are more serious in nature and usually involve trying out
for the club. Most of these clubs charge membership dues to
belong to the club.
Special Events Clubs: The main purpose of
these clubs are to travel to different areas to participate
in their club activity. Most of these clubs charge membership
dues to cover the costs of travel and lodging for their trips.
Fitness/Martial Arts Clubs: These clubs strive
to increase individuals' physical well-being through physical
and/or mental strengthening. Some of these clubs charge dues
for membership
