校内的运动

One of the many ways that our campus community embraces our Lakers is through intramural sports, which consist of casual, fun athletic leagues held throughout the academic year. In addition to providing students a great way to get involved and meet new people, intramural sports give an opportunity to stay active and make use of the university's many recently renovated indoor and outdoor athletic facilities. Intramural sports are open to all Mercyhurst students, regardless of skill level or athletic ability, so all are encouraged to participate! Intramural sports participation affords an opportunity to develop the essential qualities of leadership, 合作, 自力更生, and sense of fair play and to form friendships that will endure throughout the years.

Each season (fall, winter, spring) is six-weeks long, including playoffs.
Each activity requires registration and payment through IMLeagues.
Registration deadlines are the week prior to the start of the season.
Participants organize their own teams.
