What are Intramural Sports?
|
|
Intramural Sports is a program designed to offer opportunities for participation in a wide variety of activities at the collegiate level. Many students have played sports at the high school or recreational level, and IM Sports offers the opportunity to stay active in sports without the time commitments or skill level of the varsity player. We offer various different leagues and tournament throughout the academic year. The sports offered are listed on the IM Sports Web site.

Each captain for an Intramural Sports team is responsible for registering his/her team during the registration period. Each team’s captain MUST be present for the captain’s meeting to verify his/her team’s participation. Failure to attend will result in his/her team’s elimination. In addition, captains are responsible for communicating with all of his/her team members so that each player knows when and where the team is scheduled to play. Failure to communicate this information may result in a team forfeiting. All schedules are posted on the Intramural Sports website and the bulletin board located in the hallway across from the Intramural Office in the Student Recreation Center. Captains are also responsible for knowing and informing their team members of the intramural sports rules, policies, and procedures. Anytime Campus Rec or an IM Staff member emails a captain, it is his/her responsibility to communicate this information to the teams as well as reply to emails when indicated.
Team Captains must fill out and have a Captain's Agreement on file for their team to be eligible to participate.
