Club Sports

Club sports offer our students a unique experience. Athletes have an opportunity to compete in their sport of choice against other area college teams without the commitment of formal daily practice sessions. At the same time, our Club teams afford the student an opportunity to develop leadership skills while taking responsibility for such things as scheduling, transportation and fund raising. It is our goal to provide direction and assistance to a student run organization. Any student of the Sage Community is able to participate. This is an opportunity for anyone from beginners to experts to experience competition and meet new people. Teams that are currently competing are Ice Hockey, Crew and Competition Cheerleading. Past clubs have included, field hockey, equestrian and lacrosse.
