Facility Reservations

Only organized activities/groups sponsored or approved by Recreation & Wellbeing are permitted in the Recreation Center. Registered Student Organizations (RSO) interested in reserving facility space or University and non-University groups wishing to rent facility space must fill out the Facility Reservation Request Form along with the Outdoor Land Use Request Form (Outdoor Events Only). All special event requests must be submitted no less than 3 weeks in advance. If a facility option is not listed that is an indication that it is not a reservable space.

Approval of a facility reservation request depends on priority scheduling, room availability, date(s) of facility request, submission date of the reservation request, scope and nature of the activity/event and impact on existing programs. Recreation & Wellbeing reserves the right to deny and adjust any facility reservation request.

For all Club Sports & RSO activity room and pool reservation request please email @email.

Submitted facility requests are prioritized as follows:
1. UMass Recreation & Wellbeing programs
2. UMass Registered Student Organizations (RSO)
3. University groups/departments/units/programs (rentals)
4. Non-University/external groups (rentals)

The following areas are available for reservation:

Activity Room 118
Activity Room 121
Activity Room 210
Activity Room 215

A facility reservation request does not guarantee approval of the request. If approved, a confirmation email will be sent to the primary contact person. Groups must abide by policies established by Recreation & Wellbeing for the Recreation Center. Area policies and event policies will be communicated to the contact person of the requesting group/organization. It is the responsibility of the contact person to communicate with the members of the group/organization.

A group's scheduled reservation may be subject to change due to a variety of circumstances, including a change in the Recreation & Wellbeing group fitness schedule, a change in the group's active or good standing status with Student Engagement and Leadership, failure to use reserved time/space without prior cancelation notification, or failure by a group to follow policies established by Recreation & Wellbeing and/or the University. General expectations include, but are not limited to:

Membership or the purchase of a guest pass is required for entry. Undergraduates enrolled fulltime at UMass Amherst are automatic members of the Recreation Center.
Proper athletic attire, including shirts, bottoms and footwear, must be worn in accordance with Recreation Center policies.
Water, in a sealable plastic container or unbreakable sports bottle, is the only beverage permitted in activity areas.
Set-up of activity spaces must be scheduled and accomplished by the group during agreed-upon arrangements. Groups are responsible for cleanup after the reservation time.
Groups are welcome to bring their own portable audio system. The permanent audio system in the activity rooms is for staff or group fitness instructor use only.
Group-specific policies will be required and communicated to the group's contact(s). As an example, dance groups, such as ballroom dancing, are not permitted to wear shoes that will mark/mar the floors in the activity rooms. Martial arts groups, such as Kendo, Tae Kwon Do and boxing, are not permitted to spar. Groups may be restricted as to the equipment permitted in the activity rooms.
Recreation & Wellbeing strongly recommends no jewelry be worn during participation in the Recreation Center. Recreation & Wellbeing is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged belongings.
