Vikes Athletics and Recreation - Whitewater club

Clubs

Student led, student delivered.

Vikes Active Living Sport Clubs meet the recreational and competitive needs of the University of Victoria student community by offering a variety of organized sport and recreation activities. Supported by UVic’s Department of Athletics and Recreation (ATRS) there are currently 30 sport and recreational clubs to choose from.

Sport clubs are organized by students for students, motivated by a common interest. Different sport clubs have different priorities, such as league or tournament play, socialization, instruction, and skill development. Clubs are responsible for their own internal organization and conduct, while following policies and procedures established by ATRS.

To find out more information, check out Club and Course Union Days at the beginning of September and January. You can also send general enquiries to clubs@uvic.ca or contact the specific club below.

Join a club

Getting involved with the sport clubs is simple. Contact the clubs you are interested in for their meeting times, locations, and competition level details. Register as a member of the club(s) online or in person at CARSA Membership Services. Current UVic students, as well as community members, may be eligible to join a club based on the club requirements.
