Intramural Sports
Every Tuesday Night, Everyone’s an Athlete
Forget everything you know about college intramurals. At ACU, Tuesday nights from 9-10 PM transform our campus into the ultimate playground where competition meets community, and everyone—regardless of skill level—belongs on the field.
More Than Games, Better Than Fun
Our intramural program isn’t about finding the next pro athlete (though some of our games get pretty intense). It’s about:
- Building friendships through friendly competition
- Staying active during busy academic schedules
- Learning teamwork that translates everywhere
- Creating memories that outlast any trophy
- Growing spiritually through good sportsmanship
Whether you’re a former high school star or someone who just wants to try something new, Tuesday nights are your time to shine.
