For sports events it can really vary. If they are also inviting a team from Pi Delta Phi (French Language Honorary), then they probably just worked from a mailing list and don't have a clue who APO is (or what we are). If APO is the *only* non-social, then things may be uncomfortable in that there is the possibility of someone being eligible for two teams that they don't. OTOH, there is a place in the middle. If the invitees include other groups that have a pledging process and can overlap in membership with the socials (for example KKPsi and/or TBS or some of the other members of the National Interfraternity Music Council) then it indicates they know what they are doing. I've even seen situations where the teams were one all male, one all female and one co-ed group. (So this year we are on the Theta Chi/Kappa Kappa Gamma/Alpha Phi Omega team) (or for a large APO chapter, most teams are one fraternity and one sorority, but APO stands alone)...
