• Members of varsity, junior varsity or freshman teams are not eligible to play intramurals in their sports, nor associated sports (see list of examples below). If a person leaves the intercollegiate team before the first scheduled contest in that sport, that person will be eligible to participate in intramurals in that sport. If a person leaves the intercollegiate team after the first scheduled contest, he/she is considered a varsity athlete and is not eligible to participate in its associated sport(s) within intramurals. 
• Associate sports include but are not limited to:

• Baseball/Softball
• Basketball/3 vs 3/ 5 vs 5/Under 6'

• Any student barred from intercollegiate competition because of professionalism shall also be barred from intramural competition in that sport and corresponding sports.  

• Current (or former- within 2 years) professional or semi-professional athletes, as recognized by the NCAA/AAU or the governing body for that sport, are ineligible to participate in their respective sport or associate sports.

• A participant is bound to the FIRST team for which s/he plays; players may not switch teams during the season. In cases where players participate for multiple teams, the Intramural Staff will determine the status of both the player and the teams involved.

• Captains should make sure that every participant brings his/her valid RU ID. Participants will not be permitted to play without a valid ID, which will be collected from all team members, and will be submitted to the Intramural Staff for verification and returned after the game or event.
