Sport or Activity based SUO Clubs

Interested in a sport or activity that isn’t currently an organized UBCO Recreation activity? Join or create an SUO student association!

How we can support

UBCO Recreation strives to provide support and resources within set guidelines, to sport or physical activity based student clubs of UBC’s Okanagan campus.

SUO Clubs differ from formally sponsored UBCO Recreation activities in that club members are responsible to organize, manage, promote, and largely fund their own activities. The success of each club is dependent on the dedicated efforts of its student leaders, UBCO advisors, and club members.

Find a full list of clubs in the SUO club directory and filter for Sports and Fitness.

If you cannot find what you are looking for, you can visit the SUO office at UNC 133 for information, check the Student Association Handbook or email the Membership Outreach Coordinator (membership.outreach@suo.ca) for more information.

Benefits offered to recreational sport or activity SUO clubs

Space booking

UBCO Recreation may be able to assist with space bookings for playing/practice time. Acquiring both studio and gym space can be quite difficult and will be met to the best of UBCO Recreations’ ability.

Marketing

To elevate your club’s reach and impact, tag @ubco_recreation on your event post to be shared through Recreation’s social media.

Event/operations assistance

If your sport or activity club is hosting a tournament or event, Recreation may provide some recommendations to ensure your event is a success (e.g. helping with a tournament draw, lending available equipment, providing small prizes, etc.)

Recreation is also happy to partner with clubs on their events. If you’re running an event, get in touch with us to discuss how we might be able to assist you.
