Opportunities to Stay Active

Campus Recreation is more than just sports. We offer a variety of fitness programs, exciting climbing experiences, and open recreation activities. Additionally, our Intramural and Club Sport programs serve nearly 30% of the campus community. Join us in creating healthy habits, building lifelong memories, and staying stress-free. 

The best part? As a full-time student, it is included in your fees, and part-time students can pay a nominal price. You just need a Spartan ID card — and a little motivation. We have something for everyone.
