EnglishWhat is the OU Club of Austin website?
Updated
The OU Club of Austin website is the online home of the University of Oklahoma alumni and fan club based in Austin, Texas. It serves friends, fans, and alumni of the University of Oklahoma who want to connect with other Sooners in central Texas, gather for university-related events, and represent the university in the local community. The site is informational: it explains who the club is for, what it does, and how to get involved.
Who the club is for
The club describes itself as open to "all Friends, Fans, and Alumni of the University of Oklahoma." You do not need to be a graduate to take part. Visitors and guests are explicitly welcomed at get-togethers, so someone new to Austin or simply curious about the club can attend an event before deciding whether to join.
What the club does
Two purposes come through on the site:
- Camaraderie around Sooner events. Members gather for activities throughout the year and share in University of Oklahoma academic and athletic events in and around Austin.
- Ambassador work. Members act as representatives of the university at various events during the year, helping project the university's presence in central Texas.
The club frames its location with a bit of humor: being a Sooners fan in "BEVO's backyard" (Longhorn country) can be challenging, and the site suggests Austin may be as close to "behind enemy lines" as a Sooner can get. That shared situation is presented as part of the reason the club exists.
How to get involved
The site offers three practical paths:
| Goal | Where to start |
|---|---|
| Join the club | The "Join the Club" section |
| Learn the club's background and leadership | The "About Us" section |
| Ask a question or get in touch | The site's contact option |
The club also states it is "always looking for Sooner Volunteers" to help advance its cause, so volunteering is another way in beyond membership. The site does not publish membership pricing or a sign-up form in the material available, so the practical next step for cost or eligibility questions is to contact the club directly.
A reasonable expectation
If you are a Sooners fan or alumnus living in or around Austin, this site is the entry point for finding the local club, understanding its role, and making contact. Start with "Join the Club" if you want to participate, or "About Us" if you want context first—then reach out with any specific questions about events, membership, or volunteering.
