Campus Recreation at SOU
There’s a lot more to college than just going to class and hitting the books. Campus Recreation at Southern Oregon University provides spaces and programs for students, faculty, and staff members to connect with community and experience peak wellness.
Student Recreation Center
The SRC is the hub of Campus Recreation at SOU. This brand new, 50,000 square foot facility features a variety of workout spaces and top-of-the-line exercise equipment. From the fitness floor to the climbing wall, you’ll find your perfect place to break out of your comfort zone and reach your goals.
Rec Sports
Campus Recreation offers two types of organized recreational sports: Intramurals and Sport Clubs. Gather a group of friends and form an intramural team, or join a Sport Club and develop your leadership and team-building skills. Sport Clubs and Intramurals are open to all skill levels.
Outdoor Program
Embark on a new adventure with the SOU Outdoor Program. Learn to rock climb at the Climbing Center or explore Oregon on a student-led adventure trip. Plus, students and community members can rent all the high-quality outdoor gear you need to get outside on your own time.
Fitness Equipment Rentals
Introducing a new way to stay well from home: free fitness equipment rentals from Campus Rec. Come to the SRC during open hours, check out your equipment and workout in your own space, and then bring your equipment back the next day. Because of our limited equipment supply, we are currently only doing 1-day rentals – late fees/damage fees will be assessed for any equipment brought back late or damaged. This program is only available to SOU students who pay the Rec fee.
Available equipment: Medicine balls, dumbbells, resistance bands, jump ropes, weight belts, yard games, yoga mats, ab wheel, weighted bars, Bosu and exercise Balls.
Outdoor Gear Rentals Are Also Back
The Outdoor Program will also be open for SOU students wanting to rent outdoor gear. Visit the outdoor gear rentals page for more information.
Wellness
Campus Recreation is dedicated to creating a culture of wellness at SOU. We offer a variety of programs and services including fitness classes, a relaxation room, and a wellness blog, to help our members engage with the different dimensions of wellness and connect with their peers.
