'''Clans''' are formalized and organized (although some only very loosely) groups that players can join for purposes of battling other focused clans in an all out clan war (clanmatch in [[matchmaking]]) in team games and for practice. Clans exist in all three of the ''Halo'' games, but are becoming less prevalent in the older ones, especially ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', in which they are somewhat hard to find. In Halo: Custom Edition, clans are still easy to find and host multiple dedicated servers in an effort to provide a place for people to play and spread "publicity" about the clan. ''[[Halo 2]]'' is the only ''Halo'' game which allows actual clans that appear as a list, or as a built in option.

There is no built-in clan ladder on ''[[Halo 3]]'' but people with the same emblems and/or service tags usually say they are in a clan. However, people often organize clans externally, via the use of websites and such, but these clans are usually the much larger communities consisting of four thousand members or more. Examples of these include MLG and LCU, the two largest ''Halo 3'' gaming communities in the world. These are often created for competitive reasons, and are highly devoted due to the amount of effort it takes to effectively organize one. This kind of close devotion includes keeping a close eye on where the members are and what they are doing, holding meetings with the members, raising money to fund the community and the websites, and constantly recruiting more and more members every day.

Due to the lack of a built in system, people often organize clans externally, supplimenting unique uniforms with websites and bungie.net. These clans are usually the much larger communities of gamers, sometimes devoted to other games in addition to Halo. Examples of these large communities include MLG and LCU, the two largest ''Halo 3'' gaming communities in the world. These are often created for competitive reasons, and are highly devoted as demostrated by the league's dedication to organize these logistical organizations. This kind of devotion includes keeping a close eye on where the members are and what they are doing, holding meetings with the members, raising money to fund the community and the websites, constantly recruiting to maintain the level of popularity and keeping the group from disbanding.
