MISSION STATEMENT

OBJECTIVES

2.   To have programs of activities that are organized for and administered by students.

3.   To implement a program of activities that provides fitness, social affiliation, and fun
       through competitive and recreational pursuits; and

4.   To provide a quality program which is highly marketed, visible, and reliable  within
       the college community.

While winning is an important goal, it is not the primary objective of the Intramural Program: the main concern lies in participation.  Sportsmanship, respect, cooperation, and teamwork, which are all positive attitudes toward recreation and leisure time activities throughout life, are emphasized.  The objectives point toward the development of the total individual: physically, emotionally, spiritually, socially, and intellectually.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

1. The ultimate aim is to create, among ALL participants, a positive attitude towards the necessity of participation in physical activity.
2. Central Christian College invites you to participate in the Intramural Program.  The Intramural Program is designed to enrich the college experience of every participant, and to allow for maximum enjoyment.
3. Something for everyone reflects the commitment to a quality program that everyone can participate in and enjoy.
4. Please accept this invitation as your opportunity to participate!  It’s FUN and REWARDING.  It’s a decision that you will not regret!

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

1. All full-time or part-time Central Christian College students, staff, and faculty are eligible to participate in Central Christian College Intramural programs.
2. Any team using ineligible players shall forfeit the games in which the offender took part.
3. All team members must be listed on the official team entry form to participate. Roster additions may be made in person during the season.  Participants may play on only one team per sport.  A player is not permitted to transfer from one team to another.  A player must play in at least two league games to be eligible for tournament play.
4. Suspension will cause an individual to be ineligible for intramural competition during the time of the suspension.

The Intramural Program supports the “open” recreation system that allows participants to register for activities either individually or as a team.  The appropriate entry form (individual and/or team), which is available on the intramural bulletin board, located in the lobby of the cafeteria, must be filled out in its entirety.  Incomplete entry forms will not be accepted.  Entry forms should be turned in at the intramural bulletin board.  Participants who sign up individually must attend the captains meeting and will be placed on a team at the time.

The development of sportsmanlike attitudes is a goal of the Central Christian College Intramural Program.  A sportsmanlike attitude is expected of all participants, spectators, staff, and officials at all times.  Each team is responsible for the actions of individual members and for spectators directly related to the team.  The conduct of players before and after the game is as important as the conduct during the game.

Disciplinary System

Verbalized Cussing

• 1st Offense - The offender will be documented and ejected for the night.

• 1st Offense - The offender will be documented and ejected for the night.  The violator will not be allowed to participate again until he/she has met with Nathan Lockard and he approves their return to the sport.

*Disrespect Toward Staff and Officials - Any individual addressing a staff member in unsportsmanlike or discourteous manner may immediately be ejected from the game.  This is considered a 1st Offense under fighting.

General Comments on Discipline

• Players, spectators, or entire teams may be asked to leave the playing area if displaying unsportsmanlike or disruptive behavior.
• Destruction or theft of Intramural equipment will result in that team/individual being assessed the full cost of repairs or replacements.
• Additional campus conduct and behavioral policies apply to all Intramural activity.
• Professional discretion will be used, when necessary, to interpret, make exceptions to, or add to any rules and policies in the Intramural Program.  These decisions will be based on the integrity and overall philosophy of the Program.
