Wellness, Recreation & Athletics
Wellness, Recreation and Athletics is focussed on creating a new model for student health and wellbeing while advancing our commitment to excellence in varsity athletics. Our goal is to help students thrive so that they can achieve their personal and academic goals.
Wellness, athletics and recreation at any level are a big part of life at UVic. Our popular recreational options are designed to suit everyone from competitive athletes to occasional treadmill users and our student varsity teams are some of the best in the country. Plus, our Student Wellness team brings together a team of counsellors, nurses, physicians, spiritual care providers and more to care for students holistically.
Vikes Athletics includes 16 men’s and women’s varsity teams across 8 sports and boasts 74 Canadian University National Championships. Vikes athletes and coaches have made 173 Olympic or Paralympic appearances since 1976.
Sports offered for our students include: basketball, cross-country/track, field hockey, golf, rowing, rugby, soccer, and swimming.
Vikes Recreation includes fitness opportunities, recreation clubs and activities, aquatics and intramural programs open to students, staff, faculty, alumni and the wider Victoria community.
Join a TRX, pilates, yoga or dance class, try out an intramural sport like dodgeball, flag football or ice hockey, or check out some of the 25 sport recreation clubs on campus.
