I would like to create a weekly recap for our club and automatically query our club’s API on a regular basis.
To set this up, I’m wondering whether I should create a separate account for this, so that someone else from the club can take over the project later without needing access to my personal account.
Does anyone have experience with this?

Going by the docs above, you can transfer the club ownership to someone else without issue, but the application for the weekly recap should be yours alone.
You can still have whoever gets ownership of the club to register their own application and get their own client ids and secrets and swap them in the codebase/webapp/whatever.
Otherwise you’d create a new account, have that account create the club and the application for client_id and secret and give out the credentials to the next person.
