# Joining or Creating a Clan

If you're in a Telegram group that has already enabled Degen Arena in one of the ways described below, you can simply join that group's clan with the `/join` command.

You can also manage your clans by sending `/clans` to the bot, where you can create a new clan, switch between clans, or leave your current clan.

If Degen Arena has not yet been added to a group, you can add the bot to a group in one of three different ways.

First, go to the bot, click the three dots in the upper right corner, and click `Add to Group`. Choose the desired group, and you're good to go. Another way is by messaging @degenarenabot directly with the `/clan` command as described above, clicking `Create a new Clan`, choosing a Telegram group that you're part of, and adding the bot to the group. The last way is by going to a group, and typing the command `/start@degenarenabot`.

And that's it. Now, you'll see what all your fellow group members are up to, and vice-versa. Try not to get rekt.
