Hi, I'm a grad student interested in joining some sort of club sport (or two?) at Columbia. I want to join this upcoming spring semester, but it looks like when I go on the Columbia Rec website and go to register for a club, there are no "offerings" for Spring 2024. Are students only allowed to register for sports clubs in the early Fall?

Also, I'm considering joining one or more of these clubs: Women's Wrestling, Triathlon, Kayaking, or Ski/Snowboarding. I'd imagine Ski/Snowboarding only meets for the Fall? Is that true? Also do any of you know how often these clubs meet, or whether any of these clubs don't actually operate anymore (for instance on the Kayaking website, it seems like its been outdated since 2019, so do they still meet?). I'm mostly looking for which club(s) I would find the strongest social bonds and/or be able to meet lots of friends, and also which club(s) don't have a super large time commitment. Also if any of you have recommendations for which sports clubs I should join that I haven't mentioned please let me know.

Thanks!
