Sacramento State Sport Clubs

The Sacramento State Sport Clubs Program consists of 17 highly competitive sport clubs that compete for the University against other universities in leagues, conferences, and tournaments at the local, regional, and national levels. Every year, sport clubs have the opportunity to qualify for and compete in Regional and National Championship competitions. Because the majority of sport clubs’ expenses are covered by athlete dues or fundraising, registering for and traveling to these regional and national competitions require most sport club student-athletes to pay out of pocket to travel and compete at this level.

We are asking for your help so Sacramento State Sport Club Athletes can live their dreams of competing at the regional and national level by supporting their travel and competition entry fee costs. For clubs that do not qualify for their regional or national tournaments this year – money donated will go towards developing the club in other ways such as league entry fees, equipment, future travel costs, uniforms, etc. Any donated funds will be transferred directly to the club’s ASI bank account for the club to use as needed. 

Sacramento State Sport Clubs Program

Baseball: 

The Baseball Club is asking for YOUR HELP in raising money to support and finance some of our club expenses this Fall and Spring in order to reduce our athletes’ out of pocket expenses. As a student-run organization, we have limited resources, which can create challenges for our athlete’s participation and impact our ability to compete on a high level while representing Sac State! We are specifically in need of some assistance when it comes to practice facilities, travel, lodging, as we are expected to travel a total of 1,200 miles in the spring ALONE. We anticipate these expenses will cost between $7,500-$10,000, so all financial contributions will help support our student athletes and achieve our club’s goals. 

Competitive Cheer: 

The Competitive Cheer Club is asking for your help in raising money to support and finance our upcoming College Cheer Nationals trip in April of 2025. Donations are greatly appreciated in order to help reduce our athletes’ out-of-pocket expenses. We are specifically in need of assistance when it comes to travel, registration fees, lodging, meals, and gear. With almost 40 athletes competing with our club, we anticipate these expenses will be a large financial burden to many. Our total cost will be between $27,500-$33,000, so all financial contributions will greatly support our student athletes and help us to achieve our club’s goals. 

Competitive  Dance: 

The Competitive Dance Club is asking for your help in raising money to support and finance our club expenses this Fall in order to reduce our athletes' out of pocket expenses. As a student run organization, we have limited resources, which can create challenges for our athletes and impact our ability to compete at a national level while representing Sac State! We are the only D1 Dance Team in our division to represent California and we do it with the utmost pride. We are specifically in need of assistance when it comes to travel, lodging and uniforms. We anticipate these expenses will cost between $21,000-$27,000, so all financial contributions will help support our student athletes achieve their goal of traveling to Florida to represent Sac State at the National Dance Alliance National Competition. 

Esports: 

The Esports Club is asking for your help to support in order to continue to enhance our student athlete's experiences. As the Esports club, our priority is to ensure that our members thrive in an environment that helps develop their leadership and communication skills in a competitive or non-competitive all while having fun through gaming. Without a dedicated esports lounge or room, there is no space where members can compete and meet in person. Our main goal is to raise money to support the expenses of building an esports lounge and the necessary equipment to fill it. We estimate these expenses to range between $150,000-$500,000. This would include the cost of the facility, gaming computers, decorations and signs to represent Sac State, and other gaming accessories. All contributions will help support the success of our student athletes, help us reach our goal of having an esports space on campus, and support travel expenses for competitions and team building activities.

Men’s Rugby:

The Men’s Rugby Club is reaching out to ask for your support in raising funds to cover our travel expenses for the upcoming season, including regular competition and playoff matches. As a student-run organization, we take great pride in representing Sac State at the highest level of collegiate rugby, but we need your help to make it happen! Our travel costs, including airfare, bus transportation, and lodging, are estimated to be between $25,000 and $40,000 this season. These expenses are critical for our participation in regular season matches as well as playoff competitions, and without additional financial support, many of our student-athletes face significant out-of-pocket costs. 

Your generous contribution will help ensure that our team can continue to compete across the country, proudly representing Sac State in both regular and postseason play. Every donation brings us one step closer to achieving our goals and lifting the financial burden off our athletes. Thank you for supporting Sac State Men’s Rugby and helping us strive for excellence on and off the field! 

Men’s Soccer: 

The Men's Soccer Club is asking for your help in raising funds this year in order to reduce our athletes' out-of-pocket expenses. Being a student organized club, we have limited resources. This can create challenges when we want to attend competitions, as well as when we are in need of new equipment. Specifically, we are looking to attend the West Coast Soccer Association playoffs in Irvine, happening this April. We anticipate the costs for travel and equipment will fall between $5,000-$7,500, so all financial contributions will help support our student athletes. Any support is greatly appreciated, thank you! 

Men’s Volleyball: 

The Men's Volleyball Club is asking for your help in raising money to support and finance some of our club expenses this spring in order to reduce our athletes' out-of-pocket expenses. We are a student-run organization and thus we are limited with our resources. This creates challenges for our athletes and our ability to compete at a high level while representing Sac State! At the previous national championships in Kansas City, we placed 5th in our division and strive to surpass that this year! We are specifically in need of assistance when it comes to travel, lodging and equipment. We anticipate these expenses will cost between $20,000 - $25,000, so all financial contributions will help support our student athletes' significantly to reach our club's goals.

The rowing club needs YOUR help! We are shooting for gold this year at ACRA national championship regatta and to get to that point we need to continue to train hard but also do some fundraising. That's where you can help! Between travel costs for all regattas, equipment, and coaching we are looking at it costing about $40,000 dollars. By the end of this semester, we are looking to raise $8,000. Thank you for your dedication to this program! 

Ski & Snow: 

This year, our goal is ambitious: to embark on a journey to USCSA Nationals in Bend, Oregon at Mount Bachelor, a venture estimated to cost approximately $15,000. This pinnacle of collegiate snow sports competition not only offers our team the chance to compete at a higher level but also to bring home pride, and recognition to our community. Our journey to get there consists of several local competitions at notable venues such as Mammoth and Sierra at Tahoe which also comes with considerable costs—$2,500 in conference dues and lift tickets costing up to $70 per competitor. With a dedicated team of 20 members, external support is crucial. 

Softball: 

Softball Club is looking for your support to raise money for our club expenses for the fall and spring season. This will help reduce the cost for our athletes. With Softball club being a student run organization that has limited resources, it can create challenges for our athletes. We compete at the NCSA division one level and represent Sac State! We are in need of assistance with travel, lodging, equipment and the World Series. We anticipate the cost between $7,500-$10,000. This money would help our club and our athletes be able to continue to compete at the higher level for Sacramento State.  Thank you! 

Tennis:
