Intramurals have always been an outlet for non-athletes and athletes alike to compete in fun and friendly atmospheres on college campuses.
Saint Mary’s University has always worked to provide students with an opportunity to be involved in activities that offer a unique balance of competition and fun. When considering the 2008 school year, much has changed in the intramural department.

The first change took place when Coach Nicholas Hall was named as a director for the department. Hall is enforcing the rules that make it possible for the competition to run smoothly, thus producing a changed environment for 2008.
So long as the balance of order continues to coexist with the excited participants, the success of SMU intramurals will only continue to grow. In fact, according to Hall, the first session of intramurals in the 2008-2009 academic year saw 150 more students than the first session of the previous school year. Hall’s attitude and the direction of the SMU intramural department is that they are serious about having fun.
If you participated in Session 1 and had a great time, or maybe intended to join a team and never got around to it, note that sign-ups for Session 2 are right around the corner. Intramurals are a great way to get some healthy exercise, socialize with fellow Cardinals and possibly win one of those famous championship shirts.
