At the beginning of each semester there is an opportunity for interested students to sign up for any club sport at what is called the Involvement Fair.  If a student decides to come to Lake Forest he/she can attend the Fair in the fall and/or spring and sign up for a club sport then.  The Fair takes place in or behind Commons, depending on weather, within the first two weeks of classes.  First-year students do not need to do anything before arriving at Lake Forest in order to participate in club sports.
