As a competitor in the Alberta Colleges Athletics Conference (ACAC), part of the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) national body, The University of Alberta, Augustana Vikings Athletics program strives to create a student-athlete-centered, coach-driven and administratively supported university sports environment that will facilitate the academic, athletic, and personal development of student-athletes.

Situated in the City of Camrose, Alberta, Vikings Athletics provides support to eight varieties of sport, including basketball, curling, cross-country running, indoor track, hockey, nordic sports, volleyball, and soccer.

As a small campus of the University of Alberta, Augustana provides a focus on undergraduate education while not being overwhelming, having a student population of about 1000 students. Once a Viking, student-athletes get the added benefit of being a part of a close-knit athletic program made up of approximately 150 student-athletes or 15 percent of the campus student population.
