WHAT ARE THE COLLEGE CLUB SPORTS? MEET THE GOVERNING BODIES

College Club Sports are unique in the college athletics world, because generally speaking each sport is administered by sport specific governing bodies unlike the NCAA, NAIA, NJCAA or USports which are multi-sport college athletics governing bodies.

The following post is for the aspiring athlete, parent, coach, media or athletic director who is interested in following specific college club sports. This short post will link many of the major non-NCAA college club sport governing bodies for your reference. The lists will be divided out into sports that are also NCAA sports and those that do not exist in NCAA form.
