After I get my garb and weapons together I was thinking it would be a wise decision to see if anyone from the student body would be interested in joining the sport. What I can do is sit at a table and talk to people about it and go to events. Another thing I can do is if I have two other people who are registered as students at the U, then I can submit the idea as a club at the school and that would give us the ability to reserve parts of the school for club use. Understand that this wouldn't be a Salt Lake City group, it would be a University of Utah club that would be strongly affiliated with belegarth.
What I don't have is weapons to lend out (or in some people's opinion let newbs break) to interested parties during practices. My idea is to have someone interested in selling their foam type weapons and someone who has enough weapons to lend out come up at the same time for an official practice after 1+ weeks of advertisement. Anyway, that's what I think the bare minimum requirements are for starting something like this at the University.
