I know there have been many threads on clubs, but always on specific ones, like this one. So I think this can stay as it is, and I am not 100% sure that this is in the right forum area. If not Mods, feel free to move this!
I am making a SpeedCubing club at my school with my best friend (who I taught a while ago and averages like sub-1 minute, but I think could get sub-30 with enough practice). We both showed our cubing skills (in different classes, since we aren't in any of the same, unless you count lunch of course) to our classes, even if not trying to on purpose (my case, but not his =P), but we think we could get atleast 5-10 people to join the club. It's costs $100 USD to start a club, which isn't really a problem, just a note. So now for my real QUESTIONS:
1) Who has started/organized a club, particularly at school?
2) If you have, what are some good ideas to get young (6th grade) kids to get interested?
3) I have a fairly easy method that I made up with pretty much no algs other than for cross and corners, for the F2L, but I wanted an easy LL method. Any suggestions?
4) I am guessing that some of the kids will want some cubes to take home if they don't have a Rubik's Brand at all, or want a better speedcube if they hate their Rubik's Brand. So what cheap beginner's cube do you suggest? I was thinking the Lunhui since it's a slower cube, good for control, but doesn't lock up or pop, which is important.
5) Any other suggestions I missed?
