On September 17th, the UNCG Club Football team had their first game of the 2016 season against UNC Chapel Hill's club football team. 125 years after the founding of the once all women's institution, the school finally has a club football team. The team hopes to one day have an intercollegiate team. They are affiliated with the Nation Club Football Association.

In the Spring of 2016, the UNCG football team became official after a long wait. Last season, the team won their first game ever against Longwood University (Virginia) in double overtime.

In the 2016-2017 school year, the team has more than 40 players. Coaches include: Head Coach: Michael Vadini,Assistant Head Coach/Defensive Coordinator: Oscar Malone, Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks/Director of Football Operations: Joe Davidyock,Wide Receivers: Sammy Henderson, Offensive Line/Special Teams/Strength and Conditioning: Elliot Davis,Defensive Line: Kelvin Jones, Linebackers: Xavier Locke and Defensive Backs: Donovan Chisholm.

The first game of the fall semester 2016 season against UNC Chapel Hill's club team was a very close game right up until the very end. Unfortunately, the first game of the season didn't end with a W, final score of UNC Chapel Hill 12 - UNCG 7. UNCG's #10 made the one touchdown of the game.
