These programs may be offered by local clubs devoted to a particular activity or sport and provide coaching assistance, instruction, access to equipment and facilities, and uniforms if necessary. They may also sponsor or make arrangements for athletes to participate in amateur competitions, usually at the local or regional level, and provide officials for games. These events are generally for the enjoyment of the athletes and are not at a high enough competitive level to be considered spectator sports.
Every organization is also governed by a specific section of the Internal Revenue Code.
