YOU’LL PLAY AS HARD AS YOU WORK.

Your UMBC experience is what you make it. You’re sure to find your fit among our 200+ clubs and student organizations, study abroad, and even intellectual sports like mock trial—which defeated Yale in 2021 to win its first national championship. One evening, you could be playing Humans vs. Zombies and the next cheering on one of UMBC’s 17 Division I sports teams.

WELCOME TO #RETRIEVERNATION

Whether you want to join the team or just cheer them on, the Dawgs are here for you. Our teams have earned several America East championship titles in recent years for swimming/diving, basketball, soccer, and more.

Time To Get Moving

Considering intramural sports or wanting to start a yoga practice? The recently renovated Retriever Activities Center includes fitness studios, weight training space, a cardio studio, workout classes, an aquatics center, and tennis courts. Whatever your interest, we’ll keep you moving in your pursuit of an active and balanced life.

IN RECENT YEARS, NCAA FANS RANK UMBC’S RETRIEVER PARK AMONG THE BEST PLACES TO WATCH COLLEGE SOCCER, ALONGSIDE PENN STATE AND THE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY.
