Athletics and Intramural Program
The purpose of athletics at Southwestern is to promote and develop good physical health practices, as well as to offer an opportunity for the student to coordinate physical effort, self-discipline, and Christian testimony in the arena of sports. Team cooperation and the development of a sense of fair play are important components of this program.
Varsity sports include women’s basketball, volleyball, and cheerleading, men’s baseball, basketball, football, and soccer. In cooperation with the Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act (1994), SAGU publishes an annual report on its intercollegiate varsity athletic programs. This report is available in the office of the Athletic Director.
Southwestern also has an aggressive intramural program. This program is open to the entire campus (administration, faculty, staff, and students). A wide variety of activities are involved (athletic activities, non-athletic activities, social and service activities).
Our student accident policy is a secondary policy for varsity athletes. All varsity athletes are required to provide their own primary medical coverage to meet minimum requirements as set by SAGU. Proof of primary insurance will be required before an athlete may participate in varsity athletics.
