extracurricular activity
Explanation:
If you look at these different documents that use this term, you see that the first one says it's "no curricular" and the second one gives examples of sports, cheerleading, etc., so I think extracurricular activity is a good translation.

El objetivo central del conjunto de medios organizativos, materiales y humanos que se pone a disposición de más de 160 integrantes (con edades comprendidas entre los 7 y los 25 años), es el de colaborar desde el desarrollo de esta actividad paraescolar -no curricular- a la formación integral de sus miembros a los que directa o indirectamente va dirigida la labor educativa del Colegio San José SS.CC. (http://www.edeteatro.tiza.net/HISTORIA.HTM)
