Equestrian Club
The Georgia State Equestrian Club provides students with an extraordinary opportunity not found many other places. Students will have the chance to learn the ways of horseback riding and will have the option to travel and compete in horseshows. We are associated with the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association and are actively seeking new riders interested in joining. Although we compete, we also provide a sense of fun and recreation for students. All riders of all levels are invited to join us. If interested please contact us at gsuequestrian@gmail.com.

All currently enrolled Georgia State University students are eligible to join a sport club. Faculty/Staff are also eligible to join a club but may be excluded from competitive play. Alumni are not eligible to join a sport club.

Start a New Club

To start a new sport club or re-activate an inactive sport club, the Sport Club Coordinator can assist you! Any student may form a new sport club if there is sufficient student interest/participation in the sport. There are several factors to take into consideration when forming a new club such as gaining interest, start-up costs, practice location, etc.

To set up an appointment to learn about the process, call 404-413-1765 or e-mail sportclubs@gsu.edu.
