Acadia University takes it place among the "Ten Best Canadian Universities for Sports and Recreation" in a recent article published by the Huffington Post. 

The article states the following: "At Acadia University the student-athlete population is nearly 10 per cent of the campus. They are known for the ability to combine academics, athletics and community engagement. There are 11 varsity teams and a multi-purpose athletics complex. The fitness centre within the complex just received a facelift with brand new equipment thanks to a generous donation from the students' union and alumni."

The ranking is based on a survey conducted by UniversityHub, which asked more than 1,000 students to rate their university's sports and recreation facilities, in addition to more than 50 other factors.
