The University of Denver provides financial, facility, and professional support to its Club Sports program. Many club sports, however, require additional funding to compete at the level they desire. Each year, the Club Sports program receives an allocation of DU student fees, which is then divided between all club sports.
The University of Denver provides free facility space to on-campus club sports in addition to professional oversight, safety, and insurance coverage for the Club Sports program. All club sports teams are encouraged to fundraise and collect team dues to fund annual participation, trips, and competitions.
