University of Maine Sport Clubs are student organizations specifically registered within the Campus Recreation Department, formed by students with a common interest in a physical sport activity that exists to promote and develop interest in that particular activity. The group has joined together and organized to further their interest and enjoyment in this activity as well as promote the mission and values of the department athletically. 

UMaine Sport Clubs are student-initiated and student-led, sport-like in nature, and must be acknowledged by both the University of Maine Student Government (UMSG) as well as the Sport Club Office in order to form. Clubs must be unique from other teams and must adhere to all procedures and policies according to UMaine Campus Recreation and the University of Maine as a whole. Club Sports aim to serve as a community, and currently provide an outlet for over 1,000 enrolled UMaine students.
