When’s the last day for roster changes?
Team roster changes include adding, removing or switching players. Rosters are locked on the last day of registration. After this time, they can’t be changed online until Captains’ Day, where you can make as many changes as you need for $20.
During the season, roster changes can only be completed at the intramurals office during office hours, or by appointment. A $20 fee will be applied for each roster change (e.g., adding three players will cost $60). For all roster changes, the captain’s consent is required, either in person or via email. Note: Each intramurals participant must take part in two regular season games to be eligible for the playoffs.
Number of Players
The minimum number of players for gym or field sports is eight. The maximum is 14 for registered team leagues and 12 for individual leagues. The minimum number of players for arena sports (hockey) is 10, while the maximum is 16 (goaltender included). Only those on the roster can participate in intramural games. If you wish to add a teammate but already have the maximum number of players, someone on your roster will need to be removed first.
Can I have spares on my team?
No. All players must appear on your roster (either at the start of the season or via a roster change). Otherwise, they won’t be allowed to play.
How do I know if I am eligible to play intramurals?
Students who pay ancillary fees and full-time employees are automatically eligible to play intramurals. Students who don’t pay ancillary fees (e.g., co-op students), external community members and part-time employees must purchase a basic membership for the duration of the league to be eligible. If you’re not sure if you’re eligible, check your statement of account in uoZone. If you see that you were charged a sports fee, you’re eligible.
What are the gender ratios for mixed leagues?
Two self-identifying females must always be in the playing area. Although a team can be created with the minimum number of females required, we highly recommend you have more on the roster to account for substitutions, injury or lack of availability. If your team doesn’t meet the gender ratio, the match is considered forfeited by your team, though a friendly match can take place at the referee’s discretion.
Are there any restrictions on naming my team?
Team names must not contain special characters (commas, apostrophes, colons and hyphens). Doing so may result in a glitch in your team page, and we may not be able to accommodate roster change requests for your team.
Team names must be appropriate. We reserve the right to change any inappropriate team name. Our staff will use discretion and evaluate all team names on a case-by-case basis.
How do I know which skill level (competitive vs recreational) is more appropriate for my team?
- Competitive leagues feature players with lots of experience playing a particular sport (e.g., high school, club leagues). Players are often extremely knowledgeable about the sport, and the pace is much faster and more competitive.
- Recreational leagues feature players with limited experience playing a particular sport. They are usually beginners still trying to master the fundamentals of the game. The pace is much slower, making it more fun for our novice players.
- Please note: Some leagues are further divided into A/B leagues, with A being a more competitive option than B.
Can I switch leagues if I accidentally register for the wrong one?
If you accidentally registered for the wrong league, the intramurals administrative team can switch you into a different league if there is still room available. To request a change, please send us an email at [email protected].
How many non-students (external/community members) can I have per team?
Intramural teams should primarily be composed of students. We’re happy to welcome non-students (community members) back into our programs. However, the limit is two members per team for gym or field leagues and three per team for hockey leagues. Please note that co-op students who purchase a membership are considered students.
