Sports & Adventure as co-curricular activities (CCAs) provide crucial leadership and unique out-of-classroom learning experience. Through participation in sports, students will be able to develop greater confidence, teamwork and critical thinking essential in both personal and academic development.
As a student, you will learn to lead through activities including club management and development, as well as sports events planning, marketing and implementation. You will also be encouraged to participate in competitions, such as the Institute-Varsity-Polytechnic (IVP) Games, national championships, regional and international games. Competitive athletes may be selected to represent SMU in international competitions.
The sports curricular and activities are organised by the Sports & Adventure Clubs. The sports clubs are supervised by SMU Sports Union (SSU) and the adventure clubs by SMUXploration Crew (SMUX). Both SSU and SMUX are guided by the Office of Student Life, to provide a wide variety of recreational and competitive sports for the students’ development, enrichment and enjoyment.
We have a wide variety of clubs ranging from popular sports such as Badminton, Frisbee and Football to more niche sports such as Climbing, Judo and Fencing.
SMUX is the CCA student constituent body that represents the outdoor and adventure wing of SMU.
