A Sport Club is an organized group that has been formed by individuals who are motivated by a common interest and desire to participate in a particular sporting activity. Sport Clubs are meant to provide a learning experience for their members through involvement in teamwork, fund-raising, public relations, organization, administration, budgeting and scheduling, as well as through the development of skills in their particular sport. Involvement is an individual and team experience that helps enhance the student’s overall education while living in the university setting. More specifically, Sport Clubs are formed so the participants in each club may learn new skills, improve existing skills, engage in competition, and enjoy recreational and social fellowship.

- LSU Men’s Club Soccer. Currently, Louisiana State University does not have a NCAA men’s soccer varsity program. As such, the men’s club soccer team is the highest outlet for competitive men’s soccer at LSU.
- Every year the Louisiana State University men’s soccer club consistently fields a highly competitive team that contends for honors at the regional and national level. During the fall semester, the LSU men’s soccer club competes against numerous club teams from other universities throughout the nation in friendly matches and tournaments in preparation for the National Intramural Recreational Sports Association (NIRSA) Region IV soccer tournament. Post-season play and participation in the NIRSA national tournament are determined by the club team’s performance in the Region IV tournament. The spring season presents an opportunity for further training and competition against other club teams in friendly matches and tournaments.
- Men’s Club Soccer Official Tryouts
All students are welcome to attend both the open training session and tryouts for club.
