McMaster University Athletics

The Department of Athletics and Recreation carries a broad representative program of sports providing opportunities for all individuals within the University community to participate in their activity of interest. Resource limitations preclude the formal offering of each and every athletic interest that students or community members might request. The club system is a complementary way of providing for these many other worthwhile athletic interests. Student organizations recognized as Athletic Sport Clubs (ASCs) are governed by the rules and regulations of the McMaster Department of Athletics and Recreation.
