County Chapters
County Chapters are local extensions of the Gamecock Club that bring members together to celebrate Gamecock spirit, support our student-athletes, and build community close to home.
Each South Carolina county can have one official chapter, with additional out-of-state chapters approved by the Board. Chapters host events, promote membership, and connect fans of all ages through shared pride and purpose.
What Chapters Do
Build Community – Connect Gamecocks through local events and gatherings.
Support Athletics – Promote membership and raise awareness for Gamecock Athletics.
Lead Locally – Chapter Presidents serve as ambassadors and part of the Gamecock Club Advisory Board.
Whether you’re attending a watch party, helping grow membership, or leading a chapter, County Chapters offer a meaningful way to engage and make an impact.
