The True Meaning of Intramurals

Intramurals, what does it really mean? Intramural sports or intramurals are recreational sports organized within a set geographic area. The term derives from the Latin words intra muros meaning "within walls", and was used to indicate sports matches and contests that took place among teams from "within the walls" of an ancient city (as opposed to a varsity team which competed with teams from other cities and towns).

We can say that intramurals is a very important part of a student’s life. This has a lot of advantages and benefits for a student. One, it helps the students to show the particular field where they excel the most, maybe not in academics but in sports. It gives a chance to the students to let the others see their hidden talent. It also helps us to be healthy and fit. This also tests our leadership skills since; we will lead and operate such program and lead particular teams. Not only that, but the most important thing that intramurals teaches to learn to accept defeat, and learn sportsmanship. It also gives enjoyment and fun to the students.

Sports balances our life, it plays a very important role in our everyday life. So let us not try to keep it away and give time for it all the time. Not only it makes us fun and glad, it also makes our body healthy and fit. But let us always put in our mind that everything that is too much is not good. So let us just always balance everything.
