Need a little more info.. Is the engine reving up and the buggy is not moving at all?

Do you have a cable clutch? Is there any play or slack in the cable when the clutch in not engaged.

Have you tried any other gears other than 1st?

sounds like the clutch and pressure plate are toast, unless the adjustment is too tight, also a fair amount of "slop" as you called it is common, just make sure the lower mount is tight to the tranny and has both nuts/studs on them and the clutch arm at the bellhousing should have about 1/4" of "play" before it engages the pp although it will be stiff to move by hand it can be done
