[quote=Anonymous]I was the captain of a club team in college, and we were told quite bluntly that applicant participation in the sport wouldn't be a factor in admission (as it would be if it were varsity). While I was there we lost out on two nationally ranked players - it just wasn't a heavily weighted admission factor for them. We practiced daily during the week for most of the school year. In season there was one match a weekend. Students on the team didn't have much in the way of expenses - we had a budget funded in part by the school and in part by alumni supporters that covered equipment, entry fees, etc. I would note that there weren't club team versions of varsity sports - sports were either varsity or club, so some of the club sports were basically just as competitive as varsity.
