A few of my club members wear a patch that is similar to this... What is the actual symbol called? and what is its history?

Looks like a shuriken! The three points make me think of sanchin, but I don't know the answer to your question.

In the thread here on MartialTalk, "Tattoos", there was a link (post #308) http://www.martialtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16342&page=31 that led to a website explaining different symbols. ( http://altreligion.about.com/library/glossary/blsymbols.htm )

The symbol you asked about looks similar to this: http://altreligion.about.com/library/glossary/symbols/bldefstomoe.htm If it is a variation of the tomoe, then this link will give a brief background about it. Good luck in your search for information on your symbol.
