Sport Clubs

The UC Merced Sport Club program is comprised of seven competitive clubs that are designed to provide opportunities for UC Merced students to pursue their interests and leadership for sport. They compete at the regional and national level while gaining skills in teamwork, leadership, problem-solving and financial management. Students have the opportunity to participate in the sport they love as well as enjoying the rewards of athletic competition. Each sport club is managed and run by the students themselves.
