You’ll have the freedom to pitch ideas, take ownership of projects, and build meaningful experience with mentorship and support from our team.

Open to students from all UBC programs, with Kinesiology students especially encouraged to apply.

Commitment: approximately 1–3 hours per week from September 2026 to May 2027.

Apply through the link in our bio by August 24th!

Sport4U is more than a run club.

What began as a sport equipment donation initiative has grown into a Vancouver-based community project focused on making movement more accessible, inclusive, sustainable, and community-driven.

Our work is centred around four areas:

Community building
Resource Hub
Mentorship and outreach
Advocacy and access

Through community events, accessible physical activity resources, student leadership, partnerships, and advocacy, we want to help more people discover opportunities to move, connect with others, and feel like they belong.

Our goal is simple:

More people moving.
More people connected.
Fewer barriers to physical activity.

We’re also getting ready to build our 2026–27 student volunteer team, with applications opening later this week and selected volunteers starting in September.

More details are coming soon.

Welcome to the next chapter of Sport4U.
