Intramural Sports

intramural sports

 

Intramural Sports are offered throughout the fall and spring terms for currently enrolled Arkansas Tech students and faculty/staff members who possess a Campus Recreation Center membership.  

Offerings, schedules, individual and team sign up information can be found on our web-site, www.atu.edu/campusrecreation .  

In applicable intramural sports, student officials are provided. These student officials are sport specific trained by staff in Campus Recreation. Participants are expected to show sportsmanship and respect to all officials at all times.  

Each intramural sport has sport specific rules and regulations. These are made available to team captains and participants prior to the start of each sport season.  

Disruptive behavior, profanity, or unsafe play may result in removal from intramural sport participation.

All participants must create an account on IMLeagues or the ATU Rec app before they can join or create a team roster. Participants must create the account with their ATU email and must use their Tech I.D. as their student I.D.

Most events are divided into Men's, Women's and/or Co-Rec leagues.

All University Tournaments

The overall top 16 teams will be entered into a 16 team single elimination tournament to determine the overall campus champion for that sport. The teams are ranked based on sportsmanship, win/loss record, points against, and points for during the season. The Office of Campus Recreation reserves the right to modify the tournament bracket due to team numbers, inclement weather, or other reasons deemed necessary.

Why should you play?

Participation in intramural activities not only enhances and improves quality of life, but also provides individuals with an enjoyable recreational experience while developing life skills, social relationships, and sportsmanship. Whether you enjoy structured leagues or informal activities, this is the place for you!
