STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITIES Athletics is a big part of student life on campus. UOIT is home to many new state-of-the-art facilities including the brand new Campus Recreation and Wellness Centre. The facility is home to varsity athletics and has five gymnasiums totaling over 40,000 sq ft of playing area and can house over 3,000 spectators. UOIT athletes and students use the new Flex Centre for their weight and cardio-training. The building also features a dance studio, a full service athletic therapy clinic, training rooms and the campus health centre. UOIT is also home to the Campus Ice Centre and Campus Tennis Centre. Vaso’s field, nestled in the heart of the campus, is home to the UOIT men’s soccer program. With Mossavat’s experience as a head coach in the OUA, there is certainly a lot of optimism right from the start for a winning program with the Ridgebacks.
