Participate with and against other members of the Duke community in a variety of fun and unique recreational activities offered through Intramural Sports. We offer a mixture of team and individual activities throughout the year that are open to participants of all skill levels. Intramural Sports provides a fun, safe and fair environment for all students, faculty and staff to feel welcome. Participants must be a current Duke student and/or have an active Rec & P.E. Membership to participate.

Leagues & Tournaments

Intramural Sports functions in two formats: leagues and tournaments. Both provide the opportunity for varying levels of competition, intensity of play, and skill level. See below for details on leagues and tournaments. Please note that formats are subject to change based on factors such as time restrictions, facility constraints, and registration.

Leagues

Intramural Sport Leagues are organized recreational sport activities, such as flag football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, tennis, etc., that typically consist of a four-week regular season, followed by a single-elimination, post-season tournament. 

Tournaments

Intramural Sport Tournaments are organized recreational sport activities, such as table tennis, badminton, spikeball, and more, where teams play a few competitive match-ups (pool play games) and then participate in a single-elimination tournament all within 1-2 days.

IMLeagues

IMLeagues is your Intramural Sports headquarters where you register and join Intramural leagues and tournaments. IMLeagues accounts are tied to your Rec & P.E. Membership, activated through MyRec. View the instructions below for creating your IMLeagues account, creating a team, and joining a team.

A Free Agent is a person who wants to participate in a team sport but is unable to form a team or is looking for a team to join. Free Agents can join a team through various methods:

  1. Using IMLeagues, participants can register themselves as "Free Agents" in particular sports and contact Team Captains in an attempt to find a team to play on. See the steps below.
  2. Team Captains can go through the Free Agent lists on IMLeagues and invite players to join their team. 
  3. If there are enough free agents to fill a full roster, the Intramural Sports Office could create a free agent team if there is a team spot available.
