Harvard Athletics
About
Harvard Athletics oversees the university’s intercollegiate sports program, competing in the Ivy League at the NCAA Division I level. Beyond the varsity teams, the department builds community among students, faculty, staff and alumni, and it serves as a way for neighboring communities to share in the Harvard experience by attending games. Many of its main venues sit across the Charles River from Harvard Yard in Allston.
The best-known venue is Harvard Stadium, opened in 1903 and home to Crimson football, including the long-running rivalry with Yale known simply as The Game. Fans can follow Harvard teams across a wide range of sports through the academic year, from football in the fall to hockey and basketball in the winter. Ticket questions for home events are handled through the HarvTix office.
