Flag Football

We play 7 vs 7 on the Benedictine Soccer Field. Pass or run your way to the end zone for 6 points all-the-while dodging opponents who are desperately trying to pull your flag. This sport is played on the beautiful Benedictine soccer field. This non-contact sport allows players of all abilities, and sizes, to play football at the collegiate level.  Teams play on a 40-yard x 100-yard field with four 20-yard “zones” that represent first downs.  Each team has six eligible receivers on offense and one quarterback who is perpetually in shotgun mode.  Remember in this sport it’s not about who has the fastest receivers, it’s who completes the most efficient passes. If you are looking for a more fun and less competitive league, check out our B league which is offered in this sport. It is more relaxed without playoffs or trophies. This sport is also offered in a COED format for both A and B league providing fun for mixed gender teams as well!

Softball

Get nine of your best friends, bring a glove, and come to the Field on 8^th Street and Riley.  Ten players defend the diamond from batters who are hitting softballs all over the field.  Opponents must pitch underhand so there is no shortage of offense in this game.  65-foot base paths and 300-foot fences make singles and doubles commonplace on week nights at the diamond. If you are looking for a more fun and less competitive league, check out our B league which is offered in this sport. It is more relaxed without playoffs or trophies. This sport is also offered in a COED format for both A and B league providing fun for mixed gender teams as well! Bats and softballs are offered for equipment, at the diamond from the Intramural Department. Some equipment is provided for this sport!

Sand Volleyball

Take of your shoes and feel the sand between your toes at the Sand Courts. Teams of four compete in the best two out of three games to see who is king or queen of the court.  Games are played to 21 with rally scoring format and shoes are, of course, optional.  Bring your best game and maybe a little sunscreen for those sunny evenings in late Spring.

Indoor Soccer

Played 4 vs 4 on the Rec. Center turf field, this fast-paced game will surely fill your need for adrenaline-laced competition.  The field is only 30-yards x 20-yards but these goals are large, so this action-packed game lends itself to offense, offense, and more offense.  Teams compete in two 20-minute halves on a court surrounded by matted walls.  The ball stays in-bounds almost constantly with little to stop it but a goalie. If you are looking for more fun and less competitive league, check out our B league which is offered in this sport. It is a more relaxed setting without playoffs or trophies.

Indoor Volleyball

We play volleyball 6 vs 6 on the Haverty gym court, best two out of three games.  Teams play rally scoring to 25 with one time out per team per game.

Basketball

Challenge or join with your friends to a game of 5 vs 5 on the hard wood courts. Teams of five compete in regulation basketball with two 15-minute halves of fast-paced exciting action complete with officials and scorekeepers. Don’t miss out on your opportunity to play one of Benedictine’s most popular Intramural Sports. If you are looking for a more fun and less competitive league, check out our B league which is offered in this sport.

Outdoor Soccer

Teams play 7 vs 7 on the soccer field with no offside violations.  All other rules are the same as traditional recreational soccer with unlimited substitutions at any stoppage.  The game is supervised by two referees who observe the game by Benedictine Intramural guidelines.

Dodgeball

6 players for each team battle it out in the confines of Haverty Gym in this classic playground game.  Matches are played best four out of seven games with a 5 minute time limit on each game.  Catch a ball and get a teammate back but don’t hit your opponent in the head or you are out for the rest of the game. Equipment is provided for this sport!

Ultimate Frisbee

Seven players battle it out on each team to see who is the best disc thrower on campus. Come down to Larry Wilcox Stadium and find out.  This non-contact sport is played with 20-minute halves and there is no running with the disc.  The disc can only be advanced by throwing it forward or backward.  Throw the disc to a teammate in the 25-yard end zone to score and then throw-off to your opponent to start the game again.  If you’ve never played get ready to be worn out at the end of the night, this game is tiring.
