The institution supports programs that promote physical well-being alongside academic and religious education, allowing students to engage in sports for recreation and personal health.
While the college does not maintain a broad array of varsity-level teams, it encourages involvement through intramural leagues and recreational events designed to foster community and teamwork among students.
