What are Intramural

Sports? Intramural sports are an integral part of campus life giving students, faculty, and staff the opportunity to come together for competition and camaraderie. The Intramural Sports staff invites you to get involved and be part of the action. A variety of individual and team sports/activities are planned ranging from regular league competition to more informal tournament activities and one-day events which are intended to serve the varied interests of the URI community.

No activity is too far-fetched or outrageous. The philosophy for Intramural Sports is to provide a little for everyone in order to

get the most for all. Participation in the Intramural Sports Program is voluntary. Injuries and their resulting

costs are the responsibility of the participant. Each

participant is advised to carry personal health and accident

insurance.

URI Intramurals 101:REGISTRATION/INFORMATION

How Can I Register a Team?

All registration information and forms are available ONLINE.

Team entries forms must be submitted at the Intramural Sports Office (M-F 10am-5pm) prior to the mandatory Captains Meetings for each sport/event.

Check the IM Calendar of Events for specific entry deadlines.

Don't wait until the last minute to submit team entry forms as space may be limited for certain programs. Teams will receive scheduling priority on a first come, first served basis.

Submitting an entry form does not guarantee a spot on the playing schedule.

All teams must have at least one representative attend the mandatory Captains Meeting at The Memorial Union for each particular event.

Team entry fees will be collected at the mandatory Captains Meetings.

Teams that do not attend the Captains Meetings will not be scheduled.

filled out Team Name League Type Captains Information Alternate Captain Participants

If you do not have enough players to meet the requirement, don’t panic. Students can sign up the day of your game at the fields. Rosters freeze once Playoff’s begin.

Captain’s Signature

Participant EligibilityParticipants are responsible for their own

eligibility. Team captains are responsible for checking the eligibility of their individual team members. Inquiring about eligibility in advance precludes unnecessary delays and potential disqualifications. The Intramural Sports Program will check the eligibility of players if a team captain lodges a formal protest or if the Intramural Sports Program has reason to believe any player in question is not eligible.

Participant Eligibility Faculty & Staff

All participants must have paid the recreation fee in order to be eligible for participation in the Intramural Program.

Students

All student participants must be enrolled (full or part-time) at the University of Rhode Island and have paid the recreation fee in order to be eligible for participation in the Intramural Program.

Participant Eligibility Club Sport Athletes

A maximum of three (3) club sport members may participate in the same or equivalent sport in which they participate.

Intercollegiate Athletes

"Active" members of an intercollegiate team(s) are not eligible to participate in that sport or related activities (e.g., Varsity baseball players may not participate in IM Softball). Any person that appears on the official varsity team roster is considered to be part of that intercollegiate team.

Free Agents We encourage all

participants to join the URI Intramuralsports Facebook page, especially Free Agents.

Information is posted on the Facebook Groups.

Free Agents can go on the Facebook page and post a message, asking to join a team.

Free Agents can also attend the Captains Meeting and ask someone there if you could join there team.

URI Intramurals CANNOT force anyone to put you on there team, so the best way is to get a group of friends and register your own team.

Rosters You are allowed to be on

ONE Intramural team per sport.

If there's gender specific leagues like Men’s and Co-Rec you can play on ONE team in each league.

Once you play for a team, your on their roster and cannot play for any other team in that league.

Teams are allowed to add players to their roster at any point during the regular season.

Once playoff’s begin, rosters are frozen and no members can be added.

Any player that plays on two teams will cause the second team they join to Forfeit every game they participated in.

Forfeits and Defaults Any team that fails to

appear for any scheduled contest will be charged a forfeit fee.

GAME TIME IS FORFEIT TIME. There is no grace period.

If your team forfeits a game, a new deposit must be paid within 48 hours or before the next scheduled game, whichever comes first.

If a new deposit is not received, your team will be removed from the schedule.

Any combination of 2 forfeits and/or defaults results in loss of playoff eligibility.

A Default is better than a Forfeit. If you cant make it, let us know: Games Mon – Fri call the IM

office before 12pm the day of your game.

Games Sat – Sun call the IM office before 3pm the Friday prior to your game.
