Establishing a Sporting ClubDo you have a great idea for a new student club on the Caulfield Campus? All you need is ten Caulfield student members, at least 2 student organisers and heaps of enthusiasm to get the ball rolling. The steps below will help you on the road to setting up your own club. Informationfor starting a new sporting club/societyFor information about starting up a new sporting club or any general sporting club enquires, go to Monash Sport. Establishing a Non-Sporting ClubRegistered GroupsAll course-based, cultural, spiritual, social or interest-based (non-sporting) clubs must begin their lives as Registered Groups. This is a trial period of sorts that helps your group to develop and grow without the hassle of lots of paperwork. Unlike an affiliated club (the next step), a Registered Group operates outside the MONSU Caulfield financial system and does not have to complete affiliation paperwork.

Requirements of Registered Groups Registered Groups must abide by the Clubs and Societies poster policy – go to: If your application to form a Registered Group has been successful, download the New Registered Group Information Pack. Registered Groups must conduct themselves in an appropriate and ethical manner for the good of their members and not for the financial benefit of members or organisers. The group must at all times uphold the good reputation of MONSU Caulfield and Monash University. Registered Groups will be required to submit a report of their activities, finances and membership numbers annually. At the end of the twelve months a registered group can either apply to remain a registered group (if that works for them) or submit an application to become an Affiliated Club.
