Intramural Sports

Intramural sports are very much a part of the physical education curriculum at McQuaid. Almost 80% of the student body participates. All students are allowed to participate except those who are members of an interscholastic athletic team.  

Intramural competition is divided into two divisions: an underclass division comprised of 7th to 10th graders, and an upperclass division comprised of juniors and seniors. Most play follows a double elimination tournament format. Trophies are awarded to the members of both the championship and runner-up teams in both divisions.

Meetings: Usually seasonal, intramural competitions are conducted outside the regularly scheduled class instruction periods beginning at 2:45 each day.  

Moderators: Mr. Armstrong, Mr. Gorton, Mr. Jordan, Mr. Ruppert and Mr. Zaccardo
