Sports & Wellness

Join the team! Or cheer from the stands. Whether you're a competitive runner, a devoted fan or a casual exerciser, UAlbany can feed your spirit.

At the intercollegiate level, UAlbany students compete on 19 men's and women's teams, all in Division I. We have a successful record, too--in 2007, for example, eight UAlbany teams were America East champions. And we compete in excellent facilities, including 24 tennis courts and a roller hockey rink.

Many students participate in club sports, including crew, cricket, snowboarding, and tae kwon do. Others participate in recreational programs like belly dancing, life guarding, and yoga. And a large number of students work out on their own in our excellent gym facilities.
