Indoor & Outdoor Recreation Intramural Sports After a long day in the classroom, the Clarkson campus offers all kinds of opportunities to run, jump, dive, kick and swing. Our fiercely fun, not-so-competitive intramural teams attract more than 80 percent of Clarkson students. Show off your stick work in roller hockey, shoot hoops in the pool with water basketball or score a touchdown in touch football. There are more than 100 teams to choose from!

Outdoor Recreation If you like adventure in the great outdoors, Clarkson has one of the best locations you’re ever going to find. Our 640-acre campus sits on the edge of a village where the rolling foothills of the Adirondack Mountains meet the St. Lawrence River Valley. The Clarkson Outdoor Recreation Program manages the multiuse trail system on campus and the Adirondack Lodge, provides support and guidance to the outdoor-oriented student clubs, and runs the outdoor program that exposes students to the natural areas of the Adirondack region. Organizations like Ski Club, and Bike Club make it easy to find people who share your adventurous spirit. Clarkson’s Outing Club, one of the largest and most active student groups on campus, organizes excursions near and far that enable you to take advantage of the recreational possibilities in this spectacular environment.
