The second summer session is midway over, and for those students taking classes during the summer, a break is much needed.

Though relaxing and playing games at the beach may not be a possibility for students stuck on campus during break, University Recreation has managed to provide stress relief during the hot summer months in the form of intramural sports (IMs).

Students are eligible to compete in IMs even if they are not signed up for summer classes; participants must have taken classes in the spring and be registered for classes in the fall in order.

For the second summer session, University Recreation is hosting competitions in 3-on-3 soccer, sand volleyball and inner tube water polo. Every sport has a three-week season followed by single-elimination playoffs.

University Recreation is also offering two special tournaments in disc golf and pool battleship.

The disc golf tournament will take place July 21 on the course at Centennial Campus and will include two nine-round holes. The battleship competition will be held July 25 at Casey Natatorium and will see all participants trying to fill each other’s boats with water to sink them.

Intramurals require no experience in the sports and are meant to be fun for all involved. They resume in the fall.
