The Intramural Sports Program makes it possible for men and women with
a variety of interests and abilities to participate in informal sports
contests on the UMBC campus. The Intramural Program offers UMBC students
and faculty/staff the opportunity to participate in individual, dual,
and team competition in seasonal and weekend tournament play. In order
to meet the needs and interests of all potential participants, the program
is designed to provide competitive and recreational experiences for participants
of all skill levels and abilities. Participants have the opportunity to
make up their own teams from friends, classmates, etc. If you cannot form
a team, enter as an individual and we will place you with a team. Intramural
registration can be done by dropping off the correct form to the Rec office.

The UMBC Sport Club Program, a division of the Office of RecSports, offers
the campus community a wide variety of recreation, instruction, and competition
in 24 sports and activities. In addition, it offers the campus an alternative
to intramural, physical education, and intercollegiate competition. Currently,
the clubs provide recreation to more than 500 students.
The level of competition varies for each club. Some clubs compete on
a national level, while others offer a more relaxed setting. The Sport
Club program plays an integral role in the educational setting within
the university. Participation in the program gives the individual the
opportunity to practice and participate in organized physical activities,
testing skill through competition with clubs from other Universities.
The students' involvement in the program is designed to be enjoyable
and educational, while developing friendships and new experiences as a
result of participation. Participants and club coaches should uphold high
ethical and moral standards while display of sportmanship, comradarie,
and spirit are highly encouraged.
