The Extra Act
Intramurals has information on
all the Extramural Sports Clubs.
Sports Club are fully-recognized
campus organizations which teach
and play their specific sport, and
most sponsor competitive teams
which travel to other schools to
play in tournaments. Many also
host tournaments here in Aggie-
land.
Most of the clubs are always wel
coming new members. Some have
cubicles in the SPO, room 216
MSC. Information can be obtained
in the IM office.
The sports involved include
archery, bowling, fencing, judo,
orienteering, polo, soccer, water
polo, wrestling and many more.
Come by and see if there is a club
for your interest.

Off campus friends and your
roommates aren’t interested in
your particular sport? Never fear
OCA is here.
OCA Stands for the Off Campus
Aggies Association. OCA sponsors
a find-a-team or partner service for
off-campus Ags. Just check with Gil
Walter in the OCA cubicle in the
SPO office, room 216 of the MSC.
Dorm students should check

or come by the IM office. If you

Welcome Back Aggies
Hey Ags! Welcome back and hope you’re rested
well. The semester is new and Intramurals has lots
of things for you to do. IM offers over twenty (20)
different activities during the spring semester
aside from keeping the facilities open for general
use. We serve students, faculty, staff and spouses.
Team sports will include soccer, basketball, and
slow pitch softball. Individual and dual events will
include tennis doubles, bowling singles, table ten
nis singles, horseshoe doubles, racquetball singles
and more.
This is also the semester for track and field, free
throw, the canoe race, wrestling and the ski con
test. Also don’t forget Superstars.
Come join us for fun, frolic and new friends. IM
is something for everyone.
There is a fee for team entries. It is a $5.00
one-time fee. However, there is NO fee for dual
and individual events or special events like
freethrow.
In team sports there is a forfeiture fee for teams
not ready to play within 10 minutes after the sche
duled play time. The forfeiture fee varies by sport
and covers the cost of officating the contest.
Basketball Is Here
Yes fans, basketball season will
oficially begin Wednesday, Janu
ary 16. Here are a few pointers to
remember:
*Check your schedules before
Wednesday
*Always bring your ID to the
games
*Get out there and have a really
good time.
Also, IM is accepting Late En
tries through this Friday, January
18. A late entry does not guarantee
you a place in the tournament, but
IM will work in as many teams as
possible. So get ready to come out
dribbling.
Divisions And Classes
All the IM sports are divided into
divisions for Men, Women, and
CoRec.
In individual and dual sports
there are three classes. Class A is
for highly skilled persons seeking
intense competition. Class B is for
moderate skill and moderate com- the IM staff depending on each
petition. Class is just for fun.
In team sports, league play has
two classes, AB and C. AB is for
competition and C is for casual
play. For the playoffs AB teams are
divided into Class A and Class B by
teams league record.
Awards are given in Class A and
Class B only. Make sure you sign
up for the proper division and class.
‘Blood Makes the Grass Grow’ — that motto nowhere is the game played wilder or
sums up rugby competition everywhere and rougher than at Texas A&M. v
