How Do I Delete or Edit a Club When the Club Leader Has Died?

I have a club whose leader died long ago, but the club is still there. One of my sims just got a call from a member inviting him to join. He joined, and that's fine. I would like to either delete the club or at least edit it to update it -- It's currently called Train with Ted (it's a fitness club) but Ted is dead!

When I look at the club details, it shows no leader. What can I do? Can one of the members become the leader?

  • Is Ted (the dead leader) still around the game as a ghost? Maybe that's the issue and you need to delete his ghost in order to get rid of the club.

    No, his ghost is long gone. I am just going to go to each member and have them resign. Hopefully that will delete the current club. One of the men can then create a new one.
  • One of the epic shortcomings of clubs is the absence of any sort of club manager. Having to load into multiple households to make any sort of changes to multiple clubs is a bad design. They already have an interface for population, adding one for clubs would not have been hard at all.

    You should select a member of the club and have them do the interaction under the club social menu that says something like “Ask About Club Leader”. See what they say. It’s supposed to tell you who the leader is and since the person is dead maybe they will mention someone new?


    Oh, that sounds like a good idea. I don't do a lot of those club interactions like that, so I never thought about asking one of the members about the leader. Thanks!


    Hmm, do you use the MC Command Center mod? If so, you should be able to right click on the mailbox and press “Summon Sim” and type in that Casey person, see if the game actually makes him appear. If it does, you can ask him to step down as the leader.


    Nope, I don't use the MC Command Center. At this point, I'm just going to try to make the club go away by having the three members resign, and then one of them can begin a new club without Ted's name in it. :)
  • That is the major problem with clubs that death is the only way to get kicked out if the leader is a npc when he dies, the game don't consider him disqualified or dead. Also if the game does recongize that he died, but there is no way to reach another sim for leader, it is either the other sims are not reachable or they are in the middle of a age transition.

    Club leaders are choosen based on relationship with leader sim. So if all club members have same relationship game can't tell who is new leader until the relationships change. Also clubs have a bad habit of not updating until they meet up. However, says the club can gather that is actually not the issue, the issue with the club is it has no leader, so to fix that. Get to know the sims that are in that club, if you want to be leader, ask club members about leader, and talk down leader, you can than take control of club.

    Edit since the leaders dead you can't ask the leader to step down, you may have ask one of the current club members to be leader, than you can take over.
  • I think this is a bug that's started popping up recently. It used to be if the leader died or aged out of club requirement, someone else still in the club would become the new leader, but I've noticed this has stopped happening, and I end up with leaderless clubs running around that I can't get into to edit or anything because like you said there's no leader to usurp. I haven't found it in the bugs page, but then I'm really bad at finding things there (search feature is NOT my friend). But I think it's just a bug. I'd report it there if it hasn't been already.
  • yeah I have the same problem too Max Fryes is long gone but the game think's hes still part of a club. But I can't even find him with "Summon Sim" or "unhide hidden households" since his ghost said "we will miss you" but yet I can't get him to appear at all

    @Sid1701D9 that's not an option for child sims..doubt its an option for older sims either. "ask someone to be leader"
