Program Overview

The Edmonds College Intramural Program provides opportunities for participants to compete in various skill levels against other students, faculty, and staff members in a wide variety of sports. The Intramural Program also offers the opportunity for participants to play together in co-recreational sports. Participants may choose to participate as an individual or as part of team activities.

Intramural sports are a fun way to play, meet friends, learn new sports, test your physical ability, and relieve stress. Most activities allow you to select the days and times you play, as well as the people on your team.

• A player is not allowed to compete in different teams in the same league.

Competitive – Each league - Men’s, Women’s and Co-ed – has a Competitive division. This division is for those teams and participants that want to play against the top competition at Edmonds College Intramural Sports. Choosing the Competitive division also implies that each team in this league can be competitive against other teams.

Recreation – Each league - Men’s, Women’s and Co-ed – has a recreation division. This division is for those teams that do not want to compete against the top competition at Edmonds College, and are more interested in the camaraderie of participating in sport with their peers. Teams are only eligible for recreation if all the players on the roster fit the eligibility requirements.

Sportsmanship

All participants are expected to adhere to an honesty policy with regard to eligibility, rules interpretation, and administrative procedure. Unsportsmanlike behavior might result in ejection. UPON BEING EJECTED FROM ANY GAME OR CONTEST, THE INDIVIDUAL(S) INVOLVED ARE AUTOMATICALLY SUSPENDED FROM FURTHER INTRAMURAL COMPETITION AND MUST ARRANGE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE INTRAMURAL PROGRAMMER TO PETITION FOR PROBATIONARY STATUS.

Unsportsmanlike behavior includes but is not limited to:

• Use of foul or derogatory language, threatening, or verbally abusing any other participant or intramural sports employee before, during or after the game.
• Participating in a game for which he or she is ineligible.
• Arguing or talking back to the intramural sports staff. Only the captain should address an official or sports supervisor, and only if have done so in a respectful and courteous manner.
• Intentionally hitting, striking, pushing, shoving, grabbing, and/or throwing and/or kicking an object at another individual.

Players who use aggressive physical violence in any intramural game will be removed from the team roster for the rest of the intramural season. The player’s team will be placed on probation. A second violation by any member on the probationary team automatically disqualifies the team from intramural league competition for the duration of the season. Attention: If you are attacked, DO NOT FIGHT BACK. Any player involved in physical violence will be removed from their team.
• Due to safety concerns, no jewelry will be allowed to be worn by any participant. The only exceptions are medical alert necklaces and bracelets, which must be taped down by an intramural supervisor.

Registration and Roster Information

General Information

Intramural registration will take place throughout the quarter based on when each event begins. Teams and individuals will register by sending the completed application form to intramurals@edmonds.edu . Rosters must be fully complete with the minimum number and within the maximum number of participants before it can be turned in. Players may be added to the team roster through the last week of the regular season. Failure to have a complete roster makes a team ineligible for playoffs. Placing a name on a game score sheet does not make a person eligible to participate.

Required number of each sports

Creating a Team

1. Team registrations will be taken on a first come first serve basis until that league is full.
2. Team names cannot be changed once the schedule is posted.
3. The Intramural Sports Department reserves the right to change any team that is deemed potentially inappropriate or offensive.
4. Teams are required to wear like colored shirts/uniforms based on the team colors that have been filled out on the team roster form. Permanent numbers are required on the shirts for basketball and soccer.

3. Any participant wishing to join a team and play in a game must be made by no later than 3 hours before the game they wish to attend.  

Protest and Appeals

All protests must be made within 24 hours of the original match. If a team would like to protest during the game the eligibility of a player from the opposing team, the team captain must notify the official to stop play and then notify the intramural programmer on site. The game will be completed and the protest will be resolved after the conclusion of the contest. If a player or players are found to be ineligible, the team committing the infraction will be forced to forfeit the contest. If this happens during the playoffs the other team will advance to the next round. A protest can be made up to 24 hours after the contest during the regular season.

Forfeits and Postponements

Forfeits - GAME TIME IS FORFEIT TIME!

Teams are strongly encouraged to arrive at least 15 minutes early at the scheduled game site to check-in and prepare for the game. A double forfeit may be recorded if neither team is fully represented. Game officials will not officiate once a forfeit is declared. Teams that forfeit more than twice during the regular season will become ineligible for the playoffs. Forfeits may also be declared by the intramural staff for policy violations (eligibility, unsportsmanlike conduct, etc.).

Reschedules

In those instances when a team cannot play one of their regularly scheduled games, the Intramural Program provides some opportunity to reschedule the game. The captain of the team making the request must send the reschedule request form to intramurals@edmonds.edu and meet with the Intramural programmer at least 48 hours before the scheduled game time to reschedule the game. Leaving a voice message is not considered adequate notification. If the request comes within the 48 hour time period before the time of the contest, it will be considered a forfeit.

Defaults

If a team knows they cannot make a game and will not be able to reschedule the contest, they must send a Default Form to intramurals@edmonds.edu at least 12 hours before the scheduled game time. Teams will receive a loss, but will not be charged with a forfeit.

Intramural sports referees are the key to a successful program, and should be treated with courtesy, patience, and consideration.
