Playing sport for a college that isn't mine

<p>Hi</p>

<p>I was just wondering if it was possible for me to join another college's sport team and play for their school if mine doesn't already have an established one/there's a lack of interest. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Isn’t that something you should email the coach about?</p>

<p>Or just go to a school that has a team, or a club team, if the sport is that important to you. Or join a community team; you are not restricted from joining the community outside of college.</p>

<p>I believe that you have to be a student at the school to do sports unless it’s like a club or something.</p>

<p>You might be able to if schools are in a consortium (eg, Claremont or the 5 college consortium in Mass.). But I would think the logistics would be daunting to get to another campus for practice, etc. Much more likely to be allowed for a club sport, I assume. However, there could be liability issues for the college allowing a non-student to play.</p>
