Athletics


SVCC’s athletic program is growing! We are proud to announce that we have just joined the NJCAA (National Junior College Athletic Association) which will provide students with competitive athletic opportunities.

 

SVCC believes that engagement in athletic programs provides the best opportunities for the development of student-athletes to excel in teamwork, sportsmanship, self-discipline, and academic achievement. The Department seeks to provide an equitable, diverse, and competitive intercollegiate athletic program that is properly administered, educationally sound, and a resource for enhancing community on campus. SVCC provides student athletes administrative and coaching support, academic excellence, character and leadership development, and community service.

 

Currently SVCC has a Mens Club Basketball team but is in the process of expanding and SVCC is working to add athletic teams for women.

 

To be eligible to participate in athletics within the Virginia Community College System, students must be enrolled in at least six credits at the College and maintain a 2.0 grade point average.
