As students return from Winter Break, the sport programs team in Campus Recreation is busy gearing up for one of the most popular seasons of intramural competition. Basketball season runs from Jan. 21 through Feb. 18 and always ranks among Clemson’s most favorite indoor sports with students. Registration is open through IM Leagues from Jan. 15-18. Teams will be grouped into two different men’s, women’s and co-ed divisions.
A three-point contest will be held prior to the start of basketball season as a tuneup for interested participants. To register, students must sign in through IM Leagues between Jan. 10-15. The contest will take place on Jan. 16.
In addition, badminton is open for team registration in the same portal from Jan. 15-18. An open doubles season is scheduled to run from Jan. 21 through Feb. 18.
More information on sport programs is available on Campus Rec’s website and in the participant handbook.

In total, group fitness classes saw attendance of nearly 24,000 between Swann Fitness Center and Douthit Hills Fitness Center. Classes open for the Spring semester next week, but students are encouraged to act fast as spots tend to fill up very quickly.
