4. Ruth Warick
Senior Diversity Advisor
UBC Access and Diversity
Ruth has been involved with UBC Recreation
since she started working at UBC. By making
physical activity a part of her routine, she
has improved her overall health and increased
her stamina for working, volunteering, and
travelling.
“Working with a personal trainer
has helped keep me on track. She
has introduced me to new exercises
I can do anywhere and has refined
my technique so that I get the
most benefit from them.”
Succeed at UBC this year by making time for
movement. Moving allows us to deal with stress,
build new friendships, and maintain our bodies
to think clearly and critically.

To play verb
Engage in activity for enjoyment
and recreation rather than a
serious or practical purpose.
We often think, “I should get
active.” At UBC Recreation,
we want to move towards a
community that inspires you
to move because you love it,
not because you have to. Do
you remember when you last
played for the fun of it?
Drop in on a dance class,
take a guided walking tour, go
for a swim, join a Just for Fun
Intramurals team, learn to
play cricket or curling, skate
with your friends or bike to
campus: get inspired to play
again. At UBC Recreation,
come take part without the
requirement of having to
compete or be an athlete.

and providing staff and faculty with opportunities
to pursue options that build health and wellbeing.
Regular physical activity and overall fitness is part of a
balanced and fulfilling lifestyle, but it can be challenging
to fit this into your busy schedule. With classes offered
throughout the day and across campus, we can help fit
activity into your day.
UBC STAFF
& FACULTY
TIP: Sitting for lengthy
periods of time is bad for you,
even if you’re an otherwise
active person. Shift your
life at UBC towards more
movement as part of your
every day. Sit less to improve
your wellbeing by finding
small ways to incorporate
some movement, such as
hosting walking meetings,
taking stretch breaks, or
opting to climb the stairs.

Is Your Child in Swimming
Lessons?
We find that children who attend public
swim sessions in addition to taking swimming
lessons progress faster in lessons. Children
can practice skills and strokes and extra
time in the water builds confidence around
swimming ability. For public swim schedules,

SPORT CLUB APPLICATION PROCESS
While current UBC Thunderbirds Sport
Clubs will be recruiting athletes, UBC
Athletics and Recreation will be seeking
new clubs. In the fall of each year, sport
clubs across campus can apply to become
a UBC Thunderbird Sport Clubs for the
following academic year. If you run a highly
competitive team on campus and would
like to take this next step, please email your
inquires to sport.clubs@ubc.ca.
COMPETING AS A SPORT CLUB
All UBC Thunderbird Sport Clubs represent
the University of British Columbia.
Launched in September of 2015, the Athletics
and Recreation department has generated
a new competitive stream called the UBC
Thunderbirds Sport Clubs (UBC TSC). This
new program allows competitive clubs to
compete in non-CIS/NAIA sports while
representing the University.
The goal of offering the competitive club
stream is to provide more opportunities for
the sport club teams at UBC to represent the
University in competitions and to provide
further student leadership opportunities.

INTRAMURALS
UBC Recreation offers Intramural programming and hosts exciting
events throughout the year for people who want to participate in
team sports and activities. Whether you want to play for fun or
engage in competitive sport, there’s a league for you! Sign up as an
individual or gather a team or drop in to test out the waters or come
out to one of our events and meet new friends. If you’re a UBC
student, staff or faculty member, we want you to come out and play!
The most traditional way to find a team
is to talk to your friends, coworkers,
classmates, or roommates to find people
who are also interested in participating.
Once you have a team, for certain events
like Day of the Longboat and Storm the
Wall, you can register as a Just For Fun
team or a Competitive team:
COMPETITIVE
Represent your faculty or other commu-
nity and compete for points—teams at
this level will participate in timing heats,
with the top teams going head-to-head
in final heats.
JUST FOR FUN
Single heats and non-timed events,
this level is open to all skill levels and
abilities.
You can also sign up to be a free agent
for most of our events and leagues.
For some of our most popular events,
UBC Recreation hosts meetings to help
individuals find a team.

They offer regular weekly games with officials but teams are fluid and
adjustable—making this a great way to meet new people and play the
sport you love without the commitment of a regular team.
