Penguin Athletic Club

Christensen Soccer Field

Clark College is fortunate to have one of the top natural grass playing surfaces in the Pacific Northwest. Along with this game field, Penguin athletes have access to an outstanding practice field as well. This great setup helps to preserve the quality of our game field even when the northwest autumn turns rainy.

Our soccer complex, including office facilities for our coaching staff just steps away from the field, is one of the best in the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges (NWAACC).

O’Connell Court

On the same court where its namesake, Skeet O’Connell coached, this court is one of the best. It has seen many outstanding games and can be a great basketball and volleyball atmosphere when the stands are packed and the Clark College Pep Band is making some noise.

O’Connell Court saw a facelift in the summer of 2005 when the floor was refurbished, repainted and sealed to a beautiful quality. We also upgraded the shot clocks and scoreboard during the refurbishing process.

Playing on this great court with its fresh look, Penguin athletes are ready to carry on the winning tradition of the O’Connell Court!

Thompson Fitness Center

Clark College maintains an excellent multipurpose weight training area for athletes, physical education students and PAC members. The Gaydena Thompson Fitness Center is a highly functional facility with excellent strength, plyometrics and cardiovascular equipment.

Athletes in each of our athletic programs work out in the fitness center during their seasons and in the off-season. We also offer a wide variety of top-notch strength and agility training courses each quarter.

In today’s athletic arena, it takes more then just talent to reach your athletic goals. Physical training that includes speed development, flexibility, strength training and injury prevention gives Clark College student athletes the greatest chance possible to be successful in their competitive endeavors

Softball Complex

The newest athletic facility to join our top-of-the-line facilities offering is the softball field complex developed in partnership with the Vancouver School District. This multi-field complex offers one fenced field where all Clark College home games are played. This is one of the nicest fields in Clark County and is a great addition to our program.
