The first few practices of this semester will be held in the Central Gym as the East Gym is currently undergoing renovations with the floor. We are tentatively scheduled to move back into the East Gym at the end of May. We will keep everyone updated on the website as well as our new Facebook group and of course, by e-mail. The club practice times for this semester will be the following:

Wednesdays 6:00 – 9:00pm
Fridays 6:00 - 9:00pm
Saturdays 6:00 – 9:00pm


In order to become a member, you will need to register at our booth during Clubs Days, which will be held in the Convocation Mall on Wednesday, May 16th and Thursday, May 17th from 10am – 3pm. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST HAVE A BLUE SFU RECREATION GYM TAG IN ORDER TO REGISTER! You can obtain your free gym tag on the ground floor of the Chancellor’s Gymnasium – at the SFU Recreation Office.

If you are unable to register during Clubs Days, you may register during any of our practice times! Our first practice time will be Friday, May 25th 6 – 9pm in the CENTRAL GYM! We will be having our Icebreaker social soon! More information will be sent once the location and date is finalized! Also, if anyone wants to become a volunteer, you can sign up at our booth as well.

Once again, I would like to welcome you to the summer semester! I hope that everyone will still have time to go out and catch some sun~! Please check the website for more information and join our Facebook group at the following link:
