Student Recreation Center
Facilities
The Student Recreation Center at Fresno State offers over 50,000 square feet of indoor recreational space. We offer structured programming, such as Intramural Sports and Group Fitness classes as well as opportunities for Open Recreation like weight and cardio training and pick up basketball and volleyball games - just to name a few.
The SRC boasts the 2 largest gymnasiums on campus. Each gymnasium has 2 full, NCAA regulation basketball or volleyball courts. Gyms are available for pick-up basketball games and can also be set up for volleyball and badminton.
The West Gym houses many of our Intramural Sports tournaments and games, including basketball, co-rec basketball, indoor soccer, volleyball and the annual dodgeball tournament. The facility is also host to many community and on-campus recreation events. If you are interested in booking a gym for a tournament or recreation event, please visit this link or contact Amy Allen.
The center section of the SRC is the Main Fitness Floor. Here you will find two floors of fitness equipment ranging from cardio machines to cable strength training machines to free weights to stretching pieces and fitness equipment like BOSU balls, medicine and stability balls and plyo boxes.
Here at the SRC we offer Group Fitness classes year-round at no additional charge - it's included in your membership! You do not have to sign up in advance or pay extra for classes, however, make sure you arrive to the classes you would like to take early to ensure you get a spot - some classes fill up fast!

The SRC has several areas of dedicated floor space, perfect for stretching or doing a few ab or stability exercises.
In the stretching area located on the second floor on the North side of the track there are Table Tennis (Ping Pong) tables available for use. Use of the tables is first come, first served; there is no need to reserve a table in advance. The front desk has paddles and balls available for check-out at no additional cost.
Suspended over the East and West Gyms is our 1/8 mile indoor track. The track features 3 lanes and four easy access points as well as an adjacent area for stretching and floor exercises.
Men's and Women's locker rooms contain showers, restrooms and lockers. Items stored in day lockers must be removed by the end of the day. Lockers are cleaned out and locks on day lockers are cut nightly. You can bring your own lock or purchase one for $5 from the front desk.
Lockers may be rented by the semester. Each locker rental comes with complimentary towel service. You can find out more information about amenities on our Member Services page.
