Point Competition

The Intramural Program uses a structured point system to encourage group participation by houses, fraternities, sororities, clubs and off-campus groups.

Residence Halls

Teams from campus residence halls are organized according to the house in which they reside.

Students living in a residence hall must compete for the house where they reside. Should a student change residence halls during the school year, his/her eligibility changes to the new residence hall at the conclusion of the sport(s) currently in progress. Residence hall students may choose to participate with a fraternity/sorority or a club team. Residence Assistants are encouraged to actively participate in intramural activities with the respective residence halls.

Fraternities/Sororities

Teams representing all social fraternities/sororities which are recognized by the University of Northern Iowa are eligible for participation.

Both residence hall and off campus students may participate in intramural activities with teams representing their respective social fraternities/sororities. Students participating with such organizational teams must be active members and pledges. Social affiliates and inactive members may not participate with fraternity/sorority teams.

Clubs

Teams representing non-sport clubs which are recognized by the University of Northern Iowa are eligible for participation.

Residence hall students not participating with their respective hall team are eligible to participate with club teams.

Off Campus

Students living off campus who are not members of a fraternity/sorority or are not playing for a club team may form independent teams for competition. Off campus students are not eligible to compete for house teams without prior approval, and house students may not compete for off campus teams.

**Organization Roster Limit: There is a roster maximum of 85 participats per fraternity, sorority, recognized university clubs and off campus teams. A roster/membership list needs to be filed with the Intramural Office. The roster is open ended, names may be added or deleted prior to an activity. Organizational rosters may be submitted electronically to the Intramural Coordinator.

Non-Point Competition

Intramural competition is also established on a non-point basis to provide an opportunity to participate regardless of housing affiliation.
