experience levels

WE ARE INTRAMURALSWhat are Intramural Sports?Simply put, Intramural Sports are sport leagues run by students for students, as well as the broader University of Alberta community. Intramurals are an opportunity to play with friends—old and new—in an environment that celebrates teamwork, mutual respect, and—most of all—fun!

What is the program’s Vision?Our vision is that the University of Alberta Intramural program will be inclusive of all members of the university community; will meet the interests and abilities of a wide range of participants; and support the wellness, growth, and enjoyment of its members.

Who can participate?Intramural leagues and tournaments are open to all members of the U of A and broader community. However, those who do not pay the Athletics & Recreation fee with tuition (or do not pay tuition at all) must purchase an Intramural Membership before joining or registering a team.

What do I need to know before I play?From program basics and policy changes to our new initiatives, you can find all your essential information in the Intramural Need-to-Knows page of our website (uab.ca/intramurals).

I want to play, but don't have a team. What can I do?• Option #1: Contact your Unit Manager and let them

know you're looking to play! (see uab.ca/intramurals for more info)

• Option #2: If you're a woman wanting to play, there's an Intramural Unit looking for you! The Women's Intramural Network (WIN) aims to connect women on campus to form teams across all sports. Email them at [email protected] to get hooked up

• Option #3: Join as a free agent! Log-in to imleagues.com/ualberta, select the league you want to play in, and hit the Free Agent button. This lets you connect with captains who are looking for teammates.

What leagues and tournaments are offered by Intramurals?So glad you asked…

Wildlife viewing is at its best and the serenity of the winter landscape offers peace of mind and a quick getaway from city madness. Transportation will be provided along with park interpretation so that you are given an understanding of the geography and wildlife the park protects. One trip is done during the day; the other trip is a twilight hike paired with stargazing (weather-dependent).
