    It depends on the club. There could also be a secretary, an advertising team, and a club event planner. However, you can invent more ranks of your own.
  • Question
    Is it good to have a standard, straightforward name like "Book Club", "Chess Club", or "D&D Club"?

  • Question

  • Question
    How can I come up with a name that's cool but doesn't sound or make me look ridiculous?

  • Question
    How do I organize jobs so my club doesn't argue over what job they want?

    An online group would work best for you. Try setting one up on Facebook, tumblr, or another site of your choosing. You could even start a club of fellow homeschooled kids.

  • Question
    Can I invite my parents, because I don't think many people will want to join?
    Community Answer
    Yes. Having your parents in the club may help you with ideas because they have more life experience than you. But you should still ask other people, you never know if they will want to join until you ask!

    If other people find out about my private club, what do I do?

    How would I set up a secret club? Any ideas?
    Community Answer
    You could come up with the main idea of the club and the name, decide where you will meet, etc., on your own and then discreetly tell the people that you want to join that they're invited. If it's secret, make sure they don't tell anyone about it.
  • Question
    Do I have to get everything done before the club begins?

    No, but you could if you wanted to. You could ask your friends or club members to help you while you're having your first meeting, even.
  • Question
    Do I need to register the club's name?
    Community Answer
    That's optional and almost always unnecessary unless you intend to produce merchandise or otherwise profit off of your club name, in which case you might need to.

  • Question
    How do I come up with a club name that isn't descriptive?
