Participants may play on one team per division per sport. Example is a male is allowed to play on one Men's team and one Corec team for basketball. (may not complete on a Men's A team and Men's B team) Once you have played for one team, you are locked to a roster. Teams may add players to their
roster until playoffs begin. You can also select a preferred day to play. Days are first come first served basis and the Intramural sports department will do all final scheduling at the captain's meeting for each sport.

Teams must maintain a C average to play and a B average in playoffs All other rules are pretty similar to high school and sport specific rules of each sport. Intramurals Sports use a running clock system and have other modifications that are specified in each sport's rules. All other rules are similar to high school association or specific sport associations. Please see the rules page for specifics
