Sport Clubs are registered student organizations that exist to promote and develop interest in a particular sport or physical activity. The Sport Club program at Dickinson College offers opportunities that may be recreational, instructional, competitive, or a combination of these types of activities based on each club's constitution. All clubs are based on student interest and designed to enhance the Dickinson experience by creating an environment where students can unite in diverse groups to achieve common goals and objectives while encouraging healthy lifestyles. Sport Clubs provide a valuable learning experience through student involvement in fundraising, public relations, organization, administration, budgeting, scheduling, teaching, and leadership development.

The Sport Clubs Council (SCC) is the primary, student-lead oversight committee responsible for advising, advocating, and unifying all organizations within the Sport Clubs Program at Dickinson and ensuring that participants are aware of their rights and responsibilities as Dickinson College Sport Club student-athletes. The SCC will serve as the link between Sport Clubs and the college administration.

Climbing
The Dickinson Climbing Team was created to introducing rock climbing to the Dickinson community. There are many people who show interest but do not know how to get into the sport by themselves. We want to provide a safe and fun environment where anyone can come and try climbing with a group of people who also share an interest in it and want to see each other succeed. The Climbing Team is open to anyone even if you've never climbed a day in your life or if you've been climbing since you could walk. We hold practices during the week at the Kline climbing wall and on Fridays at Climbnasium, the local rock climbing gym. Practices consist of training different techniques and skills, and projecting on bouldering and top rope walls. As we are a competitive team we do attend competitions at other colleges and climbing gyms throughout the academic year, but members of the team are not required to compete, nor are they required to attend every practice (although we encourage attendance at at least one practice each week). Each semester we try to schedule at least one outdoor climbing trip that is open to all members of the team.

Horse shows range from locally in Pennsylvania to overnight stays in New Jersey. We belong to the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA) and compete against other teams from PA that belong to our region. The shows consist of various divisions beginning at Walk-Trot levels through the Open division, in which riders jump courses ranging from 2'9" to 3'3".
