Facility and Program Overview

Welcome to Campus Recreation at the University of Montana.  We offer a variety of facilities and programs for the University Community and strive to provide an active environment for social interaction.  Students, faculty, staff, affiliates, and the Missoula community all take part and enjoy our offerings.

Fitness and Recreation Center

The Fitness and Recreation Center (FRC) is located on the north end of campus, next to the Adams Center and across from the Montana Theatre.  Our facility offers a variety of cardio and weight machines, three multipurpose courts for basketball, volleyball or badminton, three group fitness classrooms, a squash court, and seven racquetball/handball courts.

Intramural Programs

Intramural sports are popular for students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Choose from recreational to competitive leagues and become involved in a variety of sports!  Soccer, softball, flag football, basketball, dodgeball, volleyball, inner tube water polo, tennis, golf, ultimate frisbee and more are offered during Fall and Spring semesters.  An annual 5k run on the Kim Williams trail, which is open to the public, is also a popular and fun event in the Fall.

Fitness Programs

Achieve your health and fitness goals through our many fitness programs and classes.  Personal Trainers are on staff to meet your individual needs, while fitness classes, physical therapy presentations and healthy lifestyle classes are available in a group setting.

Outdoor Programs

The world class Outdoor Program, located on the northeast side of the Fitness & Recreation Center, offers skill classes, trips, and equipment rental to satisfy your outdoor recreation adventures.  You can also take advantage of their workbench and tools for bike mainenance or ski and snowboard tune-ups.  The Outdoor Program also sponsors many presentations and films, including the prestigous Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour.  

Climbing Wall

One of the first things you'll notice in the Fitness and Recreation Center is the state of the art Climbing Wall.  Bouldering is available anytime the facility is open, while top-rope (belay) climbing is limited to specific hours when a wall monitor is on duty.  Classes and workshops are held frequently at the wall so you can learn the basics or advance your skills.

Grizzly Pool

Lap swims, adult coached swims, American Red Cross lessons, inner tube water polo, and recreational swim times are just a few of the activities going on at the Grizzly Pool.  The pool is part of your Campus Recreation membership and is open to the public for a fee.

Golf Course

Our picturesque nine-hole course located on South Avenue is perfect for beginners to experienced golfers alike.  A driving range and clipping green offer a practice area for all abilities.  In the off season, the golf course is a favorite place for cross-country skiing and sledding.
