Policies & Procedures
Kean University Recreation and Intramurals offers students, faculty, and staff a fun and competitive way to stay in shape and engage in on-campus sports activities. Both departments strive to include as many students as possible by offering several activities to participate in.
The Recreation Department hosts a variety of classes offered throughout the week along with our standard fitness center facilities which include the pool, arena, indoor track, fitness center, and weight room. The state of the art D'Angola weight room is equipped with top of the line Life Fitness and Hammer Strength equipment, 3 plasma televisions and a stereo system with surround sound. In addition, all cardio equipment is equipped with individual cable-ready television screens along with iPod and iPhone 4 chargers attached.
Intramurals offers all students a chance to participate in a number of sports regardless of their ability level. Sports that are offered include flag football, tennis, dodgeball, and basketball. Special events and open recreational opportunities include volleyball, indoor soccer, softball, bench-a-thon and turkey trot.
The recreation and intramurals department encourages all students to provide feedback or voice any concerns they may have. You can reach the Recreation staff at recreation@kean.eduÂ
