Sport Club Definition: A Sport Club is a group of students, including (2) two advisors, whom are voluntarily organized for the purpose of furthering their common interest in an activity through participation and competition. These interests can be competitive, recreational, or instructional in nature; whereas clubs may represent the University in intercollegiate competition or conduct intra-club activities such as: practice, instruction, social and tournament play.

Mission Statement To establish and maintain a Recreation Service Unit that will support broad based programming, in order to educate and provide opportunities for the practical application of services; by doing so, this will promote lifelong health and wellness for Texas Southern University students, faculty, staff, alumni, and other community members who might not otherwise have access to such services and programs.

Goals To enhance student leadership/character development and also to promote responsible TSU students.

To improve the health and wellness of TSU students.

To develop and improve the campus recreational and club sports organization activities.

To improve knowledge and professional development of Club Sports Management.

To improve management of fiscal, physical, and human resources.

Students Within the Club Sports Organization, students have an unlimited number of opportunities to become directly involved in the administration and supervision of their club. Students collectively have the responsibility for writing their club constitution and bylaws, determining their membership requirements, establishing their dues schedule, selecting their club members, selecting who will serve as the faculty/ staff advisors, establishing their clubs officers, selecting their volunteer coach, and developing/administering their club budget.

Club Sports Management Role The Department of Club Sports Management will provide encouragement, guidance, and general supervision for the various affiliated clubs. In addition, it directly oversees the operation of club sports organizations. All club coaches or representatives will work directly with club sports management concerning the club sports operations. All clubs will abide by ALL rules, policies and procedures of Texas Southern University and the Recreation Services/Club Sports Organization/Student Organization.

Club Sports Management is comprised of TSU staff and students who represent Club Sports. Club Sports Management promotes and governs over the clubs and individual members associated with those clubs.

Coordinate activities that promote the Club Sports Organization including socials, recruiting efforts, flyer posting, etc.

Provide leadership, direction, and guidance for the Club Sports participants.

Club Sports Classification The classification system is established in recognizing that individual clubs have missions and goals unique to that club. The Club Sports Organization has limited resources in money, facilities and equipment for the program. This classification system allows the program to bring consistency in the allocation of resources to all clubs.

Provisional Clubs Any new club that obtains Club Sports status will be considered provisional for the first year and will receive limited resources from the club sports organization. These clubs must demonstrate consistent leadership and active participation by the Club’s Officers and membership.

They may hold regular practices or meet several times a month.

These clubs usually do not have to qualify through a competitive format for national competition.

Each member must provide (2) forms of I.D (Valid. Current Tiger 1 ID Card & Driver License.).

Each member must turn in a copy of their unofficial transcript to Club Sports Management.

Constitution and Bylaws In order to be successful an organization must have a set of operational guidelines by which the members govern themselves. All clubs are required to have a constitution and bylaws. A copy will be kept in the Club Sports Management Office. The club constitution and bylaws should be suited to the practical operations of the operating club. General provisions should include: club name, purpose, dues, meeting, officer elections and duties, advisors duties, and qualifying regulations should provide the internal needs of the club. Specific provisions should include: membership, eligibility and qualifications, voting quorum, and amendments. The Constitution and Bylaws must be easily interpreted so that the club can operate consistently from year to year.

All new clubs have 21 days from the application submission date to turn in their constitution and bylaws to Club Sports Management, NO EXCEPTIONS! Failure to do so may risk putting the club on probation or possibly suspended.

All previous existing clubs must submit a copy of their constitution and bylaws to Club Sports Management at the beginning of the fall semester, unless otherwise stated.

It is the club’s responsibility to submit a new/revised constitution each year. *Also when registering with Student Organizations a copy of your clubs Constitution and Bylaws will be submitted (this goes for new and previous clubs).

Club Officers All Club Sports Officers must be currently enrolled at Texas Southern University and must have at least a 2.25 cumulative GPA. It is recommended that different classes of students (freshmen, sophomore, etc.) be represented in the officer ranks, so that continuity in the administration continues from year to year.

Officers are expected to be mature, energetic, responsible and honest. Each position is responsible for the entire Sports Club membership. A current list of officers’ names, phone numbers, and email addresses must be provided to the club sports management office.

Since clubs are self-administered, the daily operation of any club is the responsibility of its officers.

Although, the contributions made by each officer are vital to the overall success of the club, it is the president(s) and the advisors who are ultimately responsible for seeing that the club functions properly.

The task of conducting the business of a club is usually too large for any one individual.

A president should learn to delegate some of his/her general responsibilities to others. By delegating the responsibilities, it helps to eliminate the possibility of having one person to do all the work, as well as giving other members a sense of value.

Since each club is different, the duties of the officers will vary from one club to the next. Here is a list of suggested duties as follows:

P a g e | 12

President: 

Preside over meetings.



Know the handbook and follow its policies.

Club Advisor A good advisor can be a valuable asset to a club sports organization in terms of providing mature

P a g e | 13

judgment, advice based on experience, and insight of Club Sports and Recreation Services operations and policies. Each club must have (2) two advisors, one which MUST ATTEND ALL SCHEDULED GAMES/ACTIVITIES. The members of the club must choose the advisors and accept him/her as their advisor. The advisor should be a full-time faculty or staff member who carries status within the student membership.

Ideally, an effective advisor can bridge the gap from year to year without eliminating the authority of student leaders. A capable advisor participates without domination. The advisor should attend the meetings of the club as often as possible, as this puts him/her in a better position to understand and assist the group. He/she should always serve and advise, not sit in judgment. Any advisor, who takes over the club to the extent that students are no longer making the vital decisions, is in effect diminishing the opportunity for student development. It is imperative that all club advisors leave all administrative decisions to the officers of the respective clubs. Advisors do not have the individual authority to make any decision pertaining to but not limited to: 

Club practice times and dates



Selection of competitive leagues and events to participate in



Community service decisions



Selection of members



Fundraiser decisions

***The advisor is most helpful when he/she uses mature judgment and experience to help the club members refine their programs, plans, and discussions to a point where they are effective and realistic.***

Coaches/ Instructors Clubs may elect to have coaches or instructors for their club. Coaches may range from students, outsiders, staff members and graduate assistants. A club may choose to pay for coaches or choose volunteers; CLUB SPORTS MANAGMENT WILL NOT PAY FOR ANY COACHES AND OR INSTRUCTORS.

It is imperative that the coach/instructor restrict their contributions to those involving his/her skills and knowledge in the area of coaching and refrain from trying to manage the club. Students must be allowed to take on as much responsibility in the administration of the club as possible. The following is a breakdown of responsibilities between club officers and the coach/instructor. These responsibilities are general guidelines and should be supplemented by more specific ones as dictated by each clubs needs.

special events. In addition, the Club Sports Management office will always work with individual clubs to meet their facility needs. Before any club is granted access to any recreation facility, a facility request form must be submitted to the Sports Club office by the required deadline. Once the request has been submitted to the Sports Club office, final approval of facility space will be decided by the Facilities Coordinator.

Club Sports Management must approve all game schedules before they become final.

At times, Club Sports may be pre-empted from their facility space due to an event sponsored by the Department of Recreation Service and University Administration. These incidents will be kept to a minimum. When these incidents do occur, Club Sports Management will attempt to provide alternate facility space and notify a club representative regarding these changes.

Spectators Spectators are welcome to all club sports related activities. Each spectator is expected to follow the rules and regulations of the Recreation Center. Spectators are restricted to the area serving the competitions, and do not have the privilege to use the facility. Each club is responsible for the behavior of its spectators and guests.

If clubs find facilities/equipment being vandalized, destroyed or being treated poorly by spectators, club members should immediately report such occurrences to Club Sports Management as soon as possible.

Damages and corrections will be assessed once management has reviewed the items.

Competitions Conference/League Affiliation All competitive clubs are encouraged to affiliate with a league or conference to maintain a consistent schedule. Before joining a league or conference, affiliation must be approved by Club Sports Management. Management can assist clubs with affiliation. Even though clubs are open to everyone on campus, there may be some restrictions and limitations based on the sport or the conference, in which they can participate. It is the responsibility of the clubs president to be familiar with and follow all the conference/league affiliation policies and procedures for their sport.

Management.

Officials It is important that all Club Sports contests, games, and matches that qualified and impartial official are selected. All requests for the payment of officials using University funds must have approval from Club Sports Management. No club member will be paid for officiating services to his/her club.

Sources of Revenue The five (5) primary sources of all Club Sports at Texas Southern University are: 1) Dues 2) Fundraising 3) Sponsorships 4) Donations 5) Recreational Sports appropriations. Each club that request money from Recreation Services/Club Sports Management must assess semester dues. In addition there MUST be group fundraising efforts to help offset the operational costs of the club. These are two key points that Club Sports Management looks for when making Recreational Sports appropriations.

Clubs must present a Financial Report each month showing all monies received through dues, fundraisers, sponsorships and/or donations. The report must also include an itemized listing of all expenditures from the club. This report must be submitted upon request. Each club must generate revenue equaling 50% of their Recreational Sports appropriations; failure to do so will result in lower appropriations from Recreational Services/Club Sports Management the following year. Clubs must demonstrate their commitment to Texas Southern University by making good faith efforts to raise money on their own.

New/Provisional Clubs Budget appropriations for new/provisional clubs will be discussed with Management. The club will have to meet all the requirements for starting a club and demonstrate active participation in the Club Sports Organization to receive monies. For the first year, the allocation will be minimal. After the first year, the club will be evaluated by the Club Sports Management and re-classified for budget allocations.

Fund Raising and Development Fundraising and development can come in a variety of ways. Examples of fundraising efforts include candy sales, car washes, raffles, donated monies, corporate sponsorship and camps. Each club should keep a list of all sponsors and submit them to Club Sports Management prior to making any commitment with the sponsor. Any fundraising efforts must be communicated and approved by Club Sports Management. * All clubs must at least participate in (2) two fundraisers, and (1) community service project a semester.
