Concussion Education Take this time to educate yourself on the significance of concussive injuries by reviewing the Intramural Sports Concussion Education.

The Intramural Sports program strongly encourages you to contact our office or Watkins Health Services should you suspect you or a teammate has sustained a concussion.

Sportsmanship Sportsmanship is a top priority of the Intramural Sports program at the University of Kansas. Contest participants or spectators who choose to follow unsportsmanlike practices before, during, or after a contest, whether directed towards staff, an official, an opponent, or a spectator may be ejected from that contest. The contest official(s), Intramural Sports Supervisor, or a Recreation Services Staff member may administer the ejection at any point before, during, or after the contest. Players, coaches, or spectators ejected from any Intramural Sports contest for any reason must leave the playing facility immediately after providing their contact information, and are barred from all Intramural Sports activities until officially reinstated by the Assistant Director for Intramural Sports. Furthermore, the ejected person will immediately have their Recreation Services membership suspended and they must meet with the Assistant Director for Intramural Sports, or designee, prior to having their Recreation Services Membership reactivated. More information on Sportsmanship, including the detailed rating system, can be found in the Intramural Sports Policies and Procedures.

Eligibility criteria is explained in the Intramural Sports Policies and Procedures. ID Policy All participants must check-in with a University issued ID prior to each contest. Participants on the roster prior to the game may check in with a government or state issued ID. More information about our ID policy may be found in the Intramural Sports Policies and Procedures.
Forfeits/Defaults Teams forfeiting games will be charged a Forfeit Fine. This fine will be charged to the team captain, and they will be ineligible to compete in any Intramural Sports event until this fine is paid.
