<p>I’m pretty sure they have a club team. I’m transferring there after playing division II soccer. Kinda sucks they don’t have a team, but IIRC I saw something about there club team.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure the FSU recreation dept. helps out approved athletic clubs with some money for team expenses like travel (gas, motel, and meals) for away games so it is not as expensive to be on a club as you might think. Each member might get tagged for $50-60 for an away weekend.</p>

<p>Why don’t they just make a varsity team</p>

9

<p>^Probably because the athletic dept. doesn’t have or want to spend the money for a men’s soccer team. There is probably only a women’s soccer team to help comply with Title IX.</p>

<p>Is there any way to get the club soccer team to try and get a varsity team</p>

11

<p>No. Not in the cards at this time.</p>

<p>If a donor maybe coughed up around say $25 million FSU Athletics might start up a men’s soccer team. The last new men’s sport, cross country, was begun at FSU in 1962. All the other men’s teams started in the late 1940’s when FSU went coed with the returning WW II GI’s.
