UNB Reds
The UNB REDS are the athletic teams that represent the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada.
The UNB REDS compete in a variety of sports, including men's and women's basketball, ice hockey, soccer, and volleyball. Additionally, the athletic program encompasses swimming, track and field, cross country running, and curling for both men and women.
The name "Varsity Reds" was only adopted circa 1993. They are now named the "REDS" as of 2018. Prior to 1993, every varsity sport, including football, hockey, women's basketball, men's basketball and men's wrestling had a different name: the REDS, Red Bombers, Red Devils, Red Bloomers, Red Raiders, and Black Bears, respectively.
The UNB men's and women's curling teams compete annually at the Atlantic University Sport Curling Championships. In 2015, the men's team led by skip Josh Barry won the inaugural event. In 2024, the women's team led by skip Jenna Campbell captured the first women's curling title in program history. In 2025, the men's team competed in the 2025 New Brunswick Tankard.
The University of New Brunswick's men's hockey program can trace its lineage back to 1880 and was an inaugural member of the Maritime Intercollegiate Hockey League in 1906. Then known as the Red'n Black. The team made their first appearance in the national tournament in 1964 (only the second year it was held) where they lost to the Alberta Golden Bears, but defeated the Montreal Carabins to win a bronze medal. UNB, under The Varsity Reds banner, won a silver medal in 1997 and then won their first national championship the following year, in 1998, by defeating the Acadia Axemen by a score of 6–3.
The REDS men's hockey team has appeared in 15 gold medal games and has won ten national championships, most recently in 2024. The University of New Brunswick has hosted the national tournament six times and the team has won two titles on home ice. The Reds have also won 20 AUS conference championship banners, including three in a row on two separate occasions, between 2018–2020 and 2022–2024 respectively.
The Reds women's ice hockey program made a return as a varsity team for the 2018–19 season. The team had been downgraded to a club team after the 2007–2008 season, but after a lengthy legal battle, was reinstated.
Established in 1948 as the "UNB Red Shirts", the team plays their home games at the BMO Centre.
