Intramural sports

What are Intramural sports?

Intramural sports leagues are a great way to keep active, make friends, and have some fun while in an environment that celebrates teamwork, mutual respect, and most of all fun!  Leagues are open to UFV students, faculty, staff and alumni and are organized and run by student leaders.

The Intramural season runs for the duration of each academic semester and lasts roughly 8 weeks of scheduled games. Playing time depends on the sport and the number of teams registered. Playing equipment will be provided and set up prior to league play. *Please note Campus Rec does not supply goalie gloves for futsal intramurals.

Futsal and Volleyball leagues compete in the Valley Cup. In this competition the top Intramural team from UFV will compete against Trinity Western University's top Intramural team. Location alternates each semester between the two universities.

League Structure: Competitive and Recreational

This semester, the Volleyball Intramural League will be divided into competitive and recreational, to better accommodate varying skill levels (see below for details).

Team Placement Process:

  • During registration, teams will self-assess their skill level and register in their category of choice.
  • On September 23, exhibition style game play will be organized and Recreation Staff will observe these games and teams will be assigned a category.
  • During this time, Free Agents will also be observed and teams will be made. If you have a friend you'd like to play with, please include their name on the registration form.

Why This Approach?
Due to the growing popularity of the Volleyball Intramural League, this system ensures a fair and enjoyable experience for all participants. By balancing teams across divisions, we aim to create an inclusive and competitive environment that meets the needs of players of all skill levels.

Categories descriptions:

Competitive
This category is designed for players with volleyball experience and a solid understanding of the game's fundamentals. Expect hard hitting from one to three players per team, with occasional back-row attacks. Most participants serve overhand, and games typically showcases accurate passes and organized offensive plays. Blocking is common, though it may not always involve a solid double block. Teams usually make three contacts before sending the ball back over the net, maintaining a structured and competitive level of play.

Recreational
This category is ideal for those who are new to the sport and those with some experience playing volleyball at a recreational level. Players can expect a hit in approximately one out of every three rallies. Teams in this division prioritize a "fun-first" approach, emphasizing enjoyment in every game.

Introducing the Intramural (IM) Drop-In Pass
This pass is exclusively available to participants registered in one of our Intramural (IM) league. Designed for those who prefer not to commit to the full Peak Pass Membership. The "Special IM Drop-In Pass" can be purchased during league registration. It provides intramural league participants access to organized drop-in sessions for Volleyball, Basketball, and Futsal and is valid for the semester in which you are registered for a league. It does not provided access to the Summit Fitness Centre.
