In mathematics, and particularly in axiomatic set theory, ♣_S (clubsuit) is a family of combinatorial principles that are a weaker version of the corresponding ◊_S; it was introduced in 1975 by Adam Ostaszewski.

For a given cardinal number ${\displaystyle \kappa }$ and a stationary set ${\displaystyle S\subseteq \kappa }$, ${\displaystyle \clubsuit _{S}}$ is the statement that there is a sequence ${\displaystyle \left\langle A_{\delta }:\delta \in S\right\rangle }$ such that

${\displaystyle \clubsuit _{\omega _{1}}}$ is usually written as just ${\displaystyle \clubsuit }$.

It is clear that ◊ ⇒ ♣, and it was shown in 1975 that ♣ + CH ⇒ ◊; however, Saharon Shelah gave a proof in 1980 that there exists a model of ♣ in which CH does not hold, so ♣ and ◊ are not equivalent (since ◊ ⇒ CH).
