Our mission is to provide desired recreational sports activities, programs, and services to USF students, faculty, staff, alumni, and limited neighborhood patrons. The department will offer these groups opportunities to enhance their knowledge, interest and behavior to promote healthy lifestyles.
The newly renovated weight rooms provide elite level training zones with a selection of Olympic weights, plate-loaded machines, heavy lifting platforms, functional training equipment, barbells, dumbbells, and selectorized (cable-driven) circuits.
