Welcome to Campus Recreation at USCB
Campus Recreation provides opportunities for students, faculty, and staff to engage in physical activities to create healthy lifestyles.
The Sand Shark Recreation Center sits adjacent to the library and includes a fitness center, group exercise room, athletic training room, and gymnasium (2 basketball/volleyball courts). Campus Rec also offers an outdoor basketball court, two tennis courts, and a sand volleyball court. The fitness center is open from early morning to night and features Precor cardio equipment, free weights, power racks, and multiple selectorized machines. Adjoining the recreation center are four acres of lit field space for student intramurals, club sports, and general recreation.
The recreation center is also the headquarters for Sand Shark Athletics - all coaching staff and athletics' administrative staff have offices in the recreation center.
