SPORTSMANSHIP
Campus Recreation Intramural Sports at Drew University holds sportsmanship as "Our Golden Rule of Sport". Sportsmanship is a great tradition in sports and competition that means playing clean, handling both victory and defeat with grace, style, and dignity, respecting the judgment of referees and officials, and treating opponents with respect. Sportsmanship is a style and an attitude, and it can have a positive influence on everyone around you.
Four reasons why YOU should do Intramurals:
1. Intramurals are an amazing stress reliever.
Stressed about an upcoming exam? That group project? Your computer that just can't seem to print? Running around with a bunch of friends can do wonders for reducing your stress level.
2. They provide great exercise.
While most college students would like to go to the gym on a regular basis, few actually do. With a predetermined time already in your schedule, your workout is more likely to happen. In addition, you're less likely to miss your "workout" and the time will pass quicker than if you were alone in the gym.
3. They're a great way to meet people.
You may be getting used to seeing similar people in the courses for your major, in your residence hall, or at the events you go to on campus. Intramurals can be a great way to meet students that you may not otherwise even run into on campus.
4. Leadership opportunities.
Every team needs a captain, right? If you're looking to build your resume or test out your leadership skills, intramural teams can be a great place to start.
