Intramural Sports

Intramural sports provide team competition for groups of students, faculty, and staff. Teams are scheduled into leagues with a four- or five-game regular season and the possibility of playoffs. Each team plays approximately one game a week in the evening or on the weekend. Open, women’s, and co-rec leagues are available in most sports, and teams choose their ability division based on the experience level of team members.
