About The Department

Athletics, Intramurals and Recreation

The Department of Athletics, Intramurals & Recreation at Roger Williams University has a variety of offerings to suit different needs. We sponsor 22 varsity sports, most of which compete at the NCAA Division III level and are members of the Conference of New England. Roger Williams also has 8 clubs sports and an abundance of intramural and recreational offerings.

The Student-Athlete

The Roger Williams Athletic Department is dedicated to the Division III philosophy of the student-athlete, and the intrinsic value of athletics in education. Competition in athletics helps students discover what kind a person they would like to become. It also develops leadership, integrity, courage, and the ability to work with others to achieve a common goal. Being part of a collegiate varsity team is an experience that not all will have, but those who do will remember forever.

Recreation and More

Roger Williams also runs an extensive recreation program including fitness/wellness programs, intramural sports, and club sports to service the entire student body as well as the community as a whole. Our fitness center, pool, dance studios, field house, gym and outdoor fields helps raise the level of all the Hawks' teams as well as provide fabulous fitness, recreation, and intramural opportunities for the entire Roger Williams community.
