JOIN OUR TEAM: LEAGUE OPERATIONS COORDINATOR
For many years, the only option for student athletes to continue playing sports while at college was to play for their school's varsity or club teams or join a poorly organized and over policed rec league. LUG was created to provide a better way for student athletes to play casual or competitive sports while at university and college. LUG is filled with friends from across campuses, multiple skill levels, a strong sports community, and a focus on having good times with your teammates.
