Recreation and Active Living

Get moving and have fun!

StFX is home to many opportunities for recreation and active living. Our campus is a hub for members of the StFX and broader Antigonish communities alike, featuring state-of-the-art venues and exceptional programs. Go for a stroll around our outdoor and indoor walking tracks, enjoy a workout or class in our brand-new fitness centre, a swim in our Alumni Aquatic Centre, or (if you're a a student) get involved with Club Sports and Intramurals! Active living helps to maintain physical and mental wellbeing - and it's a lot of fun! Find the right option for you. There is something for every interest!

As a StFX student, your ID card also serves as your XREC Campus Recreation Membership Card and gives you access to all campus recreational facilities.
