Intramural Sports
SMC’s Intramural Sports program offers four-seasons of college sports, (football, soccer, softball, basketball, volleyball, golf, and tennis), and is open to any current student - no try-outs, no sitting on the bench.
In addition to activities during the Fall and Winter semesters, SMC's Intramural Sports program will continue through July with an SMC Slow Pitch Softball League, an SMC Golf League, and Tennis.
How about a game of Pickleball? This game is played on a court similar to a badminton court using a hard paddle and perforated, plastic ball. Or have a challenging round of Disc Golf.
The program is a great way to meet new friends, stay fit and have a lot of fun – all in the spirit of some friendly competition. Since SMC faculty and staff are encouraged to participate, students may get to block the shot of their favorite instructor! All of the sporting activities are also co-ed.
