Olin-Babson Intramurals
Sports & Recreation at Olin
Olin recognizes that there is a direct relationship between one’s well-being, learning and regular exercise. In order to support these relationships Olin has established a variety of programs and resources that are intended to promote short-term and long-term opportunities for staying physically active.
Residence Hall Gyms
There are two exercise rooms in the residence halls; one in West Hall and one in East Hall. In West Hall there is a cardio room and a separate room with sports equipment that is free for student use but which should be returned immediately after practice or a workout. East Hall has a gym with several cardio machines and a weight machine that has upper and lower body exercises. Both gyms also have several free weights.
Intramural Sports and Babson Facilities
Olin enjoys a unique relationship with Babson and Wellesley that includes access to Babson’s athletic facilities and Babson’s and Wellesley’s intramural leagues. Babson’s athletic facilities include indoor and outdoor basketball courts, an indoor swimming pool, an indoor track, an indoor ice skating rink, exercise classes, cardio equipment, free weights, weight machines and other exercise equipment.
