The University of Utah is home to more than 20 Sport Clubs, many of them with regional and national titles. If you would rather be on the field than in the stands, grab your gear and get out there! Join a team, or start a new team and have fun meeting new friends who love playing just as much as you do.

Our clubs

Club Description: 

The purpose of the University of Utah Alpine Ski Club is to provide a safe environment where students can continue or begin their individual and team ski racing careers. We hope to make the team inclusive to all students, yet competitive in the USCSA sanctioned events. The club team will serve as a stepping stone for building character, improving team skills, friendship, mental focus, time management skills and attaining goals.

For the USCSA Races we compete in, we will travel to Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. We compete in 4-5 races each season with the first 3-4 races being 2 day competitions and the last race being the USCSA Western Region Championships which is a 4 day competition.

The University of Utah has a proud tradition of rugby dating back to the 1970’s.  Since 2002, Utah has reached the final four in the national championship four times, and the elite eight every year but one. We continue that tradition today, with both 7’s and 15’s competing at the elite levels against such rugby powerhouses as Cal Berkeley and BYU.  The 2015 season concluded with us taking 4th place nationally in the 7’s National Championship and finishing 6th nationally in 15’s as National Tournament Semi-Finalists.  In 2011 we took the Bronze Medal in the 7’s National Tournament and were USA Rugby National Tournament Semi-Finalists in the same year.  2010 gave us a crown jewel of being the 7’s National Champions.  If you are interested in adding your rugby talents to this storied group, learning to play rugby or are anywhere in between, there is a place for you with us.
