Note générale
Sports and recreational activities have long been part of students' lives at the University of King's College. In the beginning, they were a student initiative. During the College's years at its campus in Windsor, Nova Scotia (1789 to the early 1920s), sports were organized by students with no regular funding by the University. However, when the campus was built in Halifax after the 1920 fire in Windsor, the plans included a gymnasium, located in the basement of the Chapel. It served the students until a modern stand-alone gymnasium was constructed in 1963. The first student sport-related society was the Three Elms Cricket Club, which was founded in the 1850s. Its score book for the period 1861-1901 is in the King's Students' Union fonds, series 9. The first published record of athletic, sport or recreational activity at King's was in 1879, when the first issues of the monthly student magazine, The Record, mentioned quoits, cricket, rugby and football being played. Despite extensive investigation during this archival arrangement and description project, it is not clear whether the sport of football played at King's in earlier years was rugby or whether it was football of the type played by modem teams in the Superbowl: ambiguity exists throughout the collection in the use of the term, and even photographs of "football" teams in the University of King's College photographs collectiqn are not determinative. The Board of Governors' first notice of sports was in March of 1893, when minutes recorded that students were using an ice-rink. That same nionth, students requested that the College repair the school field for sporting events. The Collegiate School offered to exchange its Cricket ground for the King's College field. In 1906, students requested that the Board give the students' annual $100 payment for; use of the gymnasium to the Students' Athletic Association instead, to repair the college campus.
