Medical Treatment


Intramural programs offer the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities at various levels of competition. Generally, contests for each team are held once or twice a week for duration of one hour. There have been few complications due to involvement in intramural programs, but the possibility exists for encountering problems related to exertion and physical activity. These problems may include, but are not limited to: muscle strain, bone fractures, light-headedness, heart attacks, and strokes.


  • When any injury occurs, the victim must fill out an incident report with the Intramural Supervisor. Medical treatment in case of injury is the individual's own responsibility. Minimum first aid treatment (i.e., ice, bandages) will be administered by the intramural staff, but any injury requiring further treatment will be referred to Rutgers University Emergency Services.
  • The victim will have the right to refuse medical attention if an injury does occur. If the individual decides to refuse medical attention, he/she will be asked to sign a waiver. However, if the Intramural Supervisor deems necessary, he/she may notify EMS.
  • All participants are responsible for acknowledging the disclaimer statement on the team's Roster Form, which is available during each match.
