Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Recreational Sports
The Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi Recreational Sports Department provides facilities, equipment and opportunities for participation in a variety of sports, recreational and social activities designed to accommodate all ages, skill levels, genders, and sport interests for the University community.
Participation facilitates educational interaction outside of the classroom among students, faculty and staff.
The activities stimulate a sense of community, provide leadership and development opportunities for students, and promote individual wellness.
There are numerous recreational opportunities available for Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi students. The Dr. Jack and Susie Dugan Wellness Center is available on campus for current students to use for weight lifting, cardiovascular equipment, basketball, volleyball, group exercise, sport club and intramural activities. The outdoor pool is open from late April through October for aquatic events and activities. Multipurpose fields on campus make it convenient for students to participate in many outdoor activities. The campus also has a hike and bike trail around the perimeter of Ward Island. This lighted trail enables walkers, runners and bicyclists to view the wetlands flora and fauna while exercising. Equipment for camping, surfing and kayaking is also available for students to rent.
The Intramural Program at TAMUCC provides opportunities for competition in team sports and individual activities. The most popular team activities include flag football, indoor soccer, volleyball and softball. Sport clubs are also available on campus with more than 15 clubs from which to choose. Mixed Martial Arts, Ballroom Dance, Table Tennis, Middle Eastern Dance, Runners and SCUBA are some of the current offerings. Clubs are a great way to try something you’ve always wanted to do and to meet other students with a common interest.
Additionally, Recreational Sports is one of the largest employers of students on campus. Student employees work as lifeguards, building attendants and supervisors, program supervisors, officials, group fitness instructors, and personal trainers. Students have opportunities to learn and develop skills that they can apply in full-time positions once they graduate.
