Packet Requirements

Every member of your sport club, including coaches/instructors, must have an approved UTSCA membership packet on file with RecSports in order to participate in any activity including travel.

...

Proof of health insurance is required for all members as well. However, if a member has not presented proof of health insurance for the time of sport club trips, Insurance will be purchased during for the duration of the trip at the cost of $5.00 per member per day of travel (price is subject to change). This insurance policy ONLY covers participants traveling to and from approved sport club competitions. IT DOES NOT cover injuries sustained while competing. 

Submitted vs. Approved Memberships

A submitted membership packet does not equal an approved membership packet. All eligible drivers must be entered into the University Driver Database. Every health insurance file must be verified for accuracy. Often, membership packets are returned to individuals for typos, bad file uploads, and missing information. Each membership must be approved by Sport Club Staff before appearing on a Sport Club roster. If an individual does not appear on your RecSports Internal Services Roster, that individual's membership has not been approved. Contact Sport Club Staff to review the membership status of any of your members.
