Term 1 events wrapped up that week, which means that it’s time to turn towards next year. Here’s a preview to get you excited for what UBC REC has to offer in term 2

Including my personal fave, Storm!

A Canadian staple, bonspiel is a medium paced adventure for the true Canuck! Grab your broom and your best Newfoundland accent to the rink.

Gladiator

Unleash your inner child at this playground like adventure! From inflatable obstacle courses to jousting matches, Gladiator is always a blast!

Ivor Wynne 3 on 3 Basketball
March 2
Dribble and dunk your way into the spotlight with this “ball” of a tournament. This is the perfect event for those who always wanted to play basketball but never had the time to commit to a league!

TriDu
March 11
Challenge yourself and “tri” to “du” this event for an exceptionally rewarding experience. TriDu has five different lengths to accommodate all experience levels. Try your hand at a relay with some friends, go it solo with the sprint distance, or rock the campus with the Olympic distance. It’s one of the first races of the season so sign up and start training!

Storm the Wall
March 25-30
This week long event features teams of five in a relay race to the finish line. Except this finish line is twelve feet tall and you’re entire team has to get over it. It’s one of the highlight of many a student’s university career and is always a high energy celebration of the end of the year.
