Sports are one of the most prominent activities practiced by students at the university due to their role in shaping and preparing a well-rounded student. Sports help break the routine of academic study while enhancing physical and mental health. They are also a vital tool for building young generations, developing their abilities, and preparing students to become active contributors to society.
For this reason, the university has established a dedicated department for sports activities, covering a variety of sports. Its mission is to promote the importance of sports among students by providing them with all the necessary equipment, sports fields, and halls. The department also aims to form sports teams with high physical fitness levels, capable of participating in local and international events.
The university also prioritizes promoting sports awareness, sports culture, and health practices among male and female students. It encourages participation in various sports, forms teams in both team and individual sports, and organizes matches, competitions, and sports festivals.

The Deanship of Library Affairs organized an eight-day event in conjunction with World Book and Copyright Day in the university city of Al-Kharj, in which culture and intellectual activities were launched, in collaboration with the Zahraa Al Maarifa Library for Publishing. More than 40 local publishing houses engaged in books, culture, and information, as well as several prominent government institutions and charitable groups, have pavilions at the expo. Knowledge, according to the university, is the foundation for civilization's renaissance and an influential factor in constructing a bright present and future as well as a creative and productive community. As a result, book fairs are increasingly important because they get books into the hands of readers and allow them to compare and contrast what is good and what is better. There is little doubt that promoting a reading culture and a culture of book acquisition is an important step toward good change in the community. The exhibition went to local families and educational institutions, and they put the book fair at Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University to their stations' calendars so that they could attend and profit from this high-quality cultural event.
The university's achievements in this field are:
The number of books that the university has available is close to two hundred thousand books in the various libraries of the university, and we look forward to more, God willing.
