The NIRSA Outstanding Sports Facilities Awards
Applications are due November 1, 2011
Increasingly, research is linking robust recreational programs, facilities, and services with student success and satisfaction in higher education. State-of-the art facilities have demonstrated their capacity to greatly enhance the overall student experience, thereby boosting recruitment and improving retention.
The NIRSA Outstanding Sports Facilities (OSF) Awards recognize the innovative designs of new, renovated, or expanded collegiate recreational facilities of NIRSA Member Institutions. Celebrate your exceptional facility by submitting an application for the 2012 NIRSA Outstanding Sports Facilities Awards.
Presented each year at the NIRSA Annual Conference & Recreational Sports Expo, awards will honor facilities that demonstrate excellence in a number of critical areas, including architectural design, functionality, and how well the facility meets its intended purpose. Winning facilities exemplify the institution's commitment to providing the higher education experience desired and valued by students.
Recipient institutions receive a plaque commemorating their achievement; designated architects and consulting firms are honored with a certificate; and winning facilities are prominently displayed on the NIRSA website. Winning facilities are considered a standard by which other collegiate recreational facilities should be measured, and from which others can benefit.
Applications are due November 1, 2011: so don't miss this opportunity to have your outstanding sports facility recognized by the leader in higher education recreation, NIRSA!
For more information about the Outstanding Sports Facilities Awards, please contact the NIRSA Director of Communications and Marketing, Ashley Murphy, or the 2012 OSF Committee Chair, Lexi Chaput.
