BISHOP’S TENNIS

The Bishops Tennis club is a non-competitive club where members get together every week to practice their skills and play games against each other based on their technical skills. No need to have a background in tennis, we love to help students who want to try this sport and we welcome the good advice from advanced-level players. I would say the club is a “Tennis community”. It is mainly to provide a platform and space for students to find tennis partners at Bishop’s.

With roots dating back to 1892, Bishop’s Hockey was the university’s first varsity team, laying the groundwork for the school’s renowned spirit and pride. Although the program folded in 1982 due to economic challenges, it was revived as an SRC club in 2010. Now competing in the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) since 2021 and competing against opponents from all over the United States and Canada, the team allows for BU students to represent Bishop’s on a national stage, striving for excellence and the chance to claim an AAU National Championship.
FLAG FOOTBALL

The Flag Football club is open to those interested in Flag Football, or who would like to try it for the first time. We welcome all levels, from beginner to experienced, and we practice once or twice weekly, Fall and Winter. Our practices consist of technical training, route running, catching, and game situations/ scrimmages. We hope to eventually create a competitive Flag Football team at Bishops and compete in the RSEQ with enough interest and commitment in the club.

FIGURE SKATING CLUB

Often Students are hesitant when they hear about the “Figure Skating Club” and assume they need to know how to skate first when that is not the case! Our club teaches a Learn-to-Skate Program (LTS) to individuals who are passionate about learning how to figure skate. We strive to not only instil the passion of figure skating to skates, but also creating moments of friendship and bonding.
ULTIMATE FRISBEE
