Athletics and Recreation

Run, swim, play, and cheer! Whether you give it your all on the field or in the stands, you're a Stag.

As a Stag, you'll join hundreds of athletes and fans who either participate on the varsity or intramural/club level or attend hundreds of games every year.

Athletics Gifts

The sound of a starter’s pistol on a bright, fall day in 1948 not only started a cross-country race but also began a journey. For 70 years, Fairfield Athletics has provided young men and women the opportunity to fully live their Jesuit education. Our Athletics programs continue to grow and excel, and yet we know we have further to go. A successful athletics program serves as a powerful source of pride for alumni and current students, binding generations together. They are also a significant factor in enrollment — young men and women with many choices want to be part of an institution that excels and they enjoy being part of a winning tradition. At Fairfield, our goals for the future include raising our stature as a Division 1A Athletics university, and we need you to reach that goal.
