Georgia Tech Intramurals

In my opinion, one of the most interesting things to do for fun here at Georgia Tech are intramurals. There are so many ways to get involved with intramurals. The intramurals program is divided up into several leagues: fraternity, sorority, co-rec, and independent, graduate student and housing. The entire program is set up, organized, and mediated by the CRC. Several of the sports in which intramurals are available actually take place in the CRC's main building; these sports include: volleyball indoor soccer, wiffle ball, basketball, water polo, racquetball, squash, ping pong, badminton and many more.
Some sports take place outdoors or at other locations these sports include: flag football, outdoor soccer, corn hole, stickball, baseball, field hockey, and many more. Usually, a student can get involved through a Greek organization if they are part of one, a student organization, a residence hall, or just a group of guys interested in forming a team together. There is usually a small fee associated with registering a team into a league, but once the fee is divided up among the team members, it is reduced to a negligible amount. The sports are decided into phases, phase 1 and 2 in the fall semester, phase 2 and 3 in the spring semester, and phase 5 in the summer semester.
In conclusion, intramurals are just one option out of many to have fun at Georgia Tech. It is important to have fun as a means of de-stressing.
