Today, Bishop's University offers a diversified athletic program. It is divided into three categories, offering levels of competition and instruction to meet a variety of individual interests and needs.

1. Interuniversity Athletics . Bishop's is a member of the Quebec Student Sports Federation, competing in football, men's and women's basketball, women's soccer, men's and women's rugby and men's golf. There is also a club lacrosse team which plays a league schedule versus team in Ontario, Quebec as well as exhibitions against teams from the Eastern United States, and a club women's hockey team that plays an exhibition schedule against area opposition and American club teams.
2. Intramural Sports provide another level of competition in men's, women's and co-educational leagues as well as individual sports. These sports include badminton, ball hockey, basketball, broomball, cross-country running, touch football, golf, ice hockey, water polo, soccer, softball, squash, tennis, and volleyball.
3. Recreational Instructional Programme offers an array of non-competitive, life-enhancing instructional activities such as aerobics, yoga, and martial arts. Two separate brochures provide details about the Fall, Winter and Spring programmes; these are available at the beginning of each session.
