Every Club team requires resources far beyond the institutional budget to be successful. Increased support enhances the ability to train, schedule, travel and operate our programs. Increased Accessibility - Participation in club sports can be expensive. Clubs cover their expenses through the collection of dues from their members and participating in team fundraising events. Increased support decreases the burden of financial stress and time commitment to fundraising efforts for each student and allows for inclusive accessibility. Increased support allows for the opportunity to provide financial assistance. - Annually, the College’s contribution makes up 30% of the total Club Sports budget, while the remaining 70% is covered by student contributions in the form of dues and trip chips, fundraising and Friends’ support. Student Impact - Investment in our student-run club sports has created a culture of success both on and off the proverbial field. Club sports provide students with a community and the opportunity to develop as leaders. Our student-athletes are better prepared to compete and have success, and equally important, graduate into their fields as future leaders. Team Travel - Our travel helps bring the Dartmouth name to different areas of the country and helps us create competitive schedules that set us up for competitive success. Uniforms and Equipment - Advancements in uniforms and equipment have a notable impact on training and in teams achieving their full potential. Our student-athletes are the most visible representatives of Dartmouth and the Dartmouth brand.
