Team, individual, and dual sports will be scheduled for each semester. Be sure to check the bulletin boards throughout the campus for events that will be offered. Schedule of events may also be obtained by stopping by the Recreational Sports Office in the HPE building, room 106.

Eligibility

All students, faculty and staff of the Lone Star College System are eligible to participate in Intramural Sports. The intramural sports staff will assume responsibility for investigation of the eligibility of all participants upon request. A college ID or recreation card will be required during all activities. In order for an individual to be considered eligible for intramural competition, his/her name and social security number must appear on the team roster. Changes in a roster must be made at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled game. There will be no roster changes allowed during any playoff or championship game. Players who have participated with one intramural team are not eligible to play for another team in that sport. Exception: Individuals may play in both the men's or women's program plus a co-rec team.

Ineligibility

Forfeit Policy

A team will be dropped from competition upon announcement of their second forfeit. The winning team must record its lineup for the forfeited game and must have at least a minimum of the official number of players. If neither team or individual shows for a game, both will be charged with a loss by forfeit.

Protests

Protests involving rule interpretations will be considered, but judgement calls will not receive consideration. Protests must be made on the field or court immediately following the incident in question. The game is suspended and the Intramural Supervisor will be called to the game. Play should not continue until a final decision is made. Protests concerning eligibility must be made before, during or immediately after the contest in question. A ruling will then be made by the Intramural Sports Director the following day.

Conduct of Participants

Good sportsmanship is vital to the conduct of every contest. Officials, supervisors, and administrative personnel shall make decisions as to warn, penalize, or eject players and/or teams for poor sportsmanship. These decisions are final. The team coach or captain is responsible for the actions of any individual member of the team and for spectators directly related to said team. Deliberate injury or deliberate attempt to injure an opponent will result in automatic suspension from all intramural activity for at least one year. Fighting will result in automatic suspension from all intramural activities for a minimum of at least one semester. Any attempt to instigate an altercation will be considered a fight. Harassment and verbal abuse of officials or intramural staff will result in ejection from the game. It can also result in a lifetime suspension from all intramural sports activity.
