Taylor Recreation Center

Completed in 2004 as part of a $2 million renovation project, the Taylor Recreation Center includes a state-of-the-art fitness center that houses ample amounts of weights (free and machine) and cardio equipment. The TRC also includes a recreation gymnasium used for a variety of departmental activities including intramurals, group fitness, informal recreation, and special events.

And for those that enjoy a good walk and/or run don’t forget to check out the Bishop Trails. These are five designated trails throughout campus measuring anywhere from .25 miles to 1 mile.

If it’s physical, the Taylor Recreation Center has it. This is your very own on-campus health club and primary location for all recreational experiences at North Carolina Wesleyan University. For information concerning facility policies and reservations, click on the links in the left tab.

Class Descriptions:

Club Sports are registered student organizations formed by individuals with a common interest in a sport or recreational activity that exists to promote and develop interest in that particular activity. Clubs may be instructional, recreational, competitive, or some combination thereof. Because they are student-initiated and student-managed, club sports provide members numerous opportunities for leadership and decision-making. Effective leadership of officers and the degree of involvement of its members directly determine the success and strength of the club. Students interested in forming a new club should contact the Director of Intramural Sports & Recreation.

IM Sports & Recreation is the “hot place” to work at NCWC. We offer an atmosphere full of energy and constant excitement. In addition, our work study positions require a wide range of skills and provide practical work experience in a variety of job titles.
