Club Sports Review

As seen in the video , people have strong opinions on whether institutions should help club sports teams out, but not everyone will agree. Club sports take a lot of work and time for the athletes and the athletes don't receive any help from the school they are competing for in terms of funding. Most club students, like Ward, want institutions to help out club sports. Some, if not most, of all varsity athletes, like Fosmoen, also agree that institutions should help club sports out some way. There are reasons that schools don't fund them like maybe they aren't that popular or competitive. In reality, the club sports have to work a lot harder to raise the funds necessary to play the sport and keep the program alive and it sure would help if the school they were playing for helped out.

The video will interview some athletes from a club and varsity sport where they tell if they think it’s unfair that schools don’t help club teams. There are many reasons why institutions don’t fund club sports, but the interviewees give their views on
