Club Sports

Lamar State College Port Arthur is committed to providing student life experiences to our students. When students show an interest in forming a club sports team, the Fitness Center Staff work with the student group to help achieve the students’ goals.

Club sports are designed to meet the competitive athletic desires of students, faculty and staff. Many student athletes choose Club Sports because their sport is not offered through the varsity or they do not wish to make the time commitment necessary for a varsity sport. Club Sports competes against other institutions of higher education from the local and regional area on a non-varsity level. Each Club Sports Team is a registered student organization providing instruction, organizing practice and scheduling competition in a specific sport. As a student organization each team is administered, developed and coached by students on that team. Teams may have larger or fewer members based on the level of interest in that sport. Club Sports are partially funded through the College, and no athletes are on scholarships.
