Dedman Center

Dedman Center is the largest indoor sports center at SMU, located at 6000 Bush Ave, Dallas, TX 75205.

You can get access to the center by your student ID (one day after activation). There are basketball courts on the first floor, indoor runway on the second floor, gym and swimming poor on the first floor underground and a lot of other equipment. Most of them are free, however they do charge on sports such as rock climbing. You can rent any related equipment with your student ID such as basketballs, badminton and pingpang.

There are also sports clubs that have rehearsals or activities in the center. I personally attend the SMU Ballroom Club because I have learnt Latin ballroom for a long time. We went to the competition called ‘Dance with Owls’ in November at Rice University Huston. I felt honored to be part of the team and won the group competition.

Generally, you can find a lot of fun outside the program. If you are a sport guy, Dedman Center for Lifetime Sports is definitely the place you want to spend your spare time.
