An exciting new chapter for Intramural Sports is about to come of age at OCCC.
“We are going to introduce a new intramural registration site, which is more of a membership management site,” said Eric Watson, recreation and fitness specialist.
The new website is called Imleagues and is everything wrapped up in one.
It has game schedules and team information — basically all the descriptions and announcements involved with intramural sports, Watson said.
He said he believes the site will make intramural sports more efficient.
Students can now register for Intramural sports online at www.imleagues.com/Schools/OCCC/Registration.
