We have Bocce ball courts on campus!
We’d like to offer a summer lunch league for UIS employees. Yes, it’s a bit warm outside, but it’s not a game that takes a lot of energy. It's a game that's a lot of fun.
A team only consists of two people, but we’re encouraging departments to sign up. That way, you can have people cheer you on, or you can take turns, or if someone is on vacation, someone else plays. This is how it will work:
Cricket Pitch
Our campus features a concrete cricket pitch located just south of TRAC, across the street, between the baseball field and the soccer fields. It is available for use by UIS students and the UIS Cricket Club. While equipment is not provided, students are welcome to bring their own. Members of the Springfield community may use the pitch but must reserve it in advance by contacting Jay at jswen2@uis.edu.
Kiwanis Basketball Court

The Kiwanis Stadium Basketball Court is located just east of the Kiwanis Soccer Stadium.
Disc Golf Course
The 18-hole campus disc golf course is designed for players of all skill levels. Students, faculty, staff, and members of the Springfield community are welcome to use the course free of charge. UIS students can check out discs from TRAC during regular operating hours.
Rec Park
Rec Park is located on the north side of Vachel Lindsay Drive, directly across from Pennyroyal Court. The park offers a variety of outdoor amenities, including a sand volleyball court, an outdoor basketball court, horseshoe courts, a swing set, a mini golf course, a softball field (or two flag football/soccer fields), a bocce ball court, and a charcoal grill. Equipment is available for checkout at the front desk of Founders Residence Hall (FRH) or TRAC.
