Intramural Sign-Up Procedures:
Teams can enter a league at any time during the league’s registration period. Each team needs to complete the following in order to register:
- All teams must be registered through www.imleagues.com by the registration deadline for each league and tournament. (See imleagues.com sign-up instructions for information on registering your team.)

I want to play intramurals, but I don't know anyone. How do I participate?
Individuals as well as teams are encouraged to participate in intramurals. Teams are usually formed from student organizations and, often, simply groups of friends. However, if you want to play but don’t know enough people to form a team, don't fret, you can still get involved. All you need to do is show up at the team representative meeting for the program that you are interested in. Your name will be posted on the “Free Agent Board” and available to any other individuals as well as team captains looking for players or partners.

Kiernan Center Championship Series
The Kiernan Center Championship Series is for those who wish to participate in our intramural tournaments, and be awarded for it. The Kiernan Center Championship Series purpose is to promote friendly competition between the student body as they accumulate points in three different areas. These areas consist of participation, sportsmanship, and competition. The point system is designed to award participants and teams that participate in multiple intramural tournaments while maintaining good sportsmanship. The overall champion will be crowned at the end of the semester, and have their team name engraved on a plaque that will be displayed in the Kiernan Recreation Center. In addition, the winning member will receive an intramural championship t-shirt along with a $100 cash prize. Take the first step by registering your team on imleagues.com/Niagara and get to playing!
Eligibility
Every intramural participant is eligible to accumulate points for their designated team name. The affiliation name must remain the same for each sport or event to count towards the Championship Series standings. Even though qualifying teams will be limited in team sports to one team per league per sport, each member registered will receive points towards their individual Championship Series standings.
