Some Are More Important Than Others

some sports are treated better and are more well known than others

Something for Everyone

The athletics at UC Davis are open to everyone who is looking to get involved. While our football team may not take the cake compared to other schools, we definitely have other sports that shine (i.e. Tennis, Soccer, Swimming). The school spirit is great, students come decked out in jerseys, body paint, reppin' the school colors---everyone has a good time. Those that are looking for ways to get out of the house and get their blood flowing need only to visit our gym, the ARC, to find a club to get involved in. We have a wide range of activities offered, from rugby to volleyball, and even inner tube water polo. The large number of teams allows for people of all skill levels to join.

UC Davis Athletics

Although athletics is not as integral to our student life here at UCD compared to other schools, our athletics department is quite formidable. Of those who participate in intramurals and athletics, all our very dedicated and hardworking. Because not many people attend games in general, whenever a team reaches some amount of success, a lot of people will turn out. Also, because a lot of freebies are given out at games, the school spirit is pretty high as well. Our ARC is a great facility, and students use it to their greatest extent, as evidence by the fact that there are always people there. They also offer group exercise courses, like Zumba and yoga, that are very popular as well.
