RecSports Recruiting Events

Rec@Nite

Typically, our Rec@Nite event is located at Gregory Gym during Summer Orientation. This is a tabling opportunity for Sport Clubs to market their teams to freshmen and transfer students attending orientation. The event is once a week during orientation sessions. Sport Clubs will register to attend the event via Recruitment Event sign up on Internal Service. Most clubs bring the following supplies:

  • A banner

  • A poster with information about the club

  • Sport Club gear and equipment

    • Past trophies

  • A sign up sheet - typically on the computer

Party on the Plaza

Party on the Plaza is a longstanding welcome back to campus event. The event is another opportunity for Sport Clubs to advertise their team to the student body. The event occurs the second Wednesday of classes in the Fall. Typically, Sport Clubs will be joined in tabling efforts with over 300 other student organizations. The event takes place at Gregory Gym, and stretches the length of Speedway. The event is also a fundraiser for the Student Emergency Fund.
