VSU’s intramural bowling, basketball, and flag football started this past week for students, faculty, and staff wanting to get involved in recreational sports.

Basketball offers many different leagues including fraternity, sorority, men’s, women’s, corec, and resident halls, all of which have a variety of teams participating.

The intramural basketball team kicked off last Monday at the rec center, with each league having a few games.

Bowling also began last Monday, with fraternity, sorority, and CoRec teams participating.

The flag football team started last Thursday, with only three different leagues participating: men’s, women’s and CoRec.

Other intramural sports include softball, extreme dodge ball, sand volleyball, pool, and soccer, which all begin later in the semester.

Intramurals sports are a way for students and faculty to come together and participate in a little friendly competition.

The recreational center also offers part time jobs for students, faculty, or staff to become referees for these sports.
