The school has signed a commitment letter to become part of the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) which oversees intercollegiate sports at two-year colleges.
Southwest Virginia has hired an athletic director, Jason Vencill, who told the Bristol Herald Courier that 2018 will be a recruiting year for the school's new NJCAA sports.
Coaches are being hired and athletes being signed in anticipation of starting competition in August 2019.
The college already has a number of facilities to accommodate these sports, including a full-size gymnasium, baseball and soccer fields, tennis courts and trails for cross country.
Established in 1968, Southwest Virginia Community College is located in Richlands, Va.
