There is a lot of information provided to students in the Intramural Handbook. Topics like entries information, eligibility and suspensions penalties and protest are listed for the public to be informed on. 

For example, there is a passage that talks about the sportsmanship ratings given by officials to the games that are officiated. The Intramural Handbook states the following on sportsmanship ratings:

“Teams will be given a sportsmanship rating by the officials for each game. Ratings are A, B and C. A ‘C’ rating is not satisfactory and the team will receive a letter to encourage better behavior.

A second ‘C’ rating could result in the team being dropped from further competition. A ‘C’ rating is subjective and is given by the game officials or supervisors or sport director.

There does not need to be any specific penalties of unsportsmanlike behavior to receive a ‘C’ rating. Likewise, unsportsmanlike penalties during the contest do not necessarily mean a team will receive a ‘C’ rating. Failure to treat officials or supervisors and opponents with respect could lead to a ‘C’ rating.

a. Teams and individuals may be dropped on the first offense if the conduct is racial or excessively violent in nature. This determination will be made by the intramural coordinator.

b. Awards may be withheld from championship teams or selected individuals if their sportsmanship following the contest is inappropriate. This will be determined by the intramural coordinator.”
