SupportTheVikes_2011
The history of UVic Vikes Athletics is one of excellence.  Few universities in Canada can match the championship success of the Vikes program and this is a direct reflection on the many high quality student-athletes who have represented UVic.

In order to recruit championship calibre student-athletes, UVic must be competitive in offering athletic scholarships and support to our student-athletes. UVic has several programs and annual events targetted specifically to raising funds for athletic scholarships.

Being a varsity student-athlete requires a significant commitment, in terms of time and energy throughout the entire academic year, and leaves little time for part-time employment. UVic is committed to offering our student-athletes an enviroment where they can achieve the highest degree of excellence and focus on academics and athletics.

Below you will find detailed programs how UVic supports its student-athletes and opportunities for you to join our team of supporters and further the “Traditon of Champions”.


CHAMPIONSHIP BREAKFAST

The inaugural Vikes Championship Breakfast took place on September 30, 2008 with upwards of 750 guests filling McKinnon Gym for breakfast. The event raised $320,000 for athletic scholarships, which are integral in attracting the best student-athletes to UVic. The 2011 Championship Breakfast features keynote speaker Adam Kreek who is a 2008 Olympic gold medallist in men's eights rowing and a former Vike. The breakfast takes place Tuesday, Sep. 27.
