Athletics

We offer 15 varsity sports and opportunites to play in intramural leagues

Are you looking for an outlet for your competitive drive? Do you enjoy the camaraderie of a team? At George Fox, you will get the opportunity to compete.

Form an intramural flag football, 3-on-3 basketball or volleyball team with your friends. Or, take the field or court as a member of one of our nationally successful intercollegiate programs.

George Fox offers 15 varsity sports – eight for women, seven for men – and competes in the nine-member Northwest Conference at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III level. We also offer a cheer program for students to cheer on the men's and women's basketball teams.

National championships

We are one of only two Northwest Conference schools to win multiple national team championships at the D-III level.

In 2009, our women’s basketball team went a perfect 32-0 and capped the year by becoming the first school west of the Rocky Mountains to win a D-III national title in basketball. Five years before, in 2004, our baseball team claimed a World Series crown. In 2011, we had an individual national track champion, Irene Johnson, in the women’s 100-meter hurdles.

Winning tradition

Beyond the Games - The Impact of Athletics at George Fox

Be part of a winning team. We’ve earned district or conference titles in 10 different sports during the last decade, and more than 300 of our athletes have earned All-American and All-American Scholar-Athlete honors. George Fox coaches have held their positions for an average of almost eight years and together have accumulated more than 1,000 collegiate wins.

But we believe the impact of athletics extends well beyond the field of play, and can last a lifetime. Watch this video to see how participating in sports has changed our athletes’ lives for the better.
