Basketball Tournament

Soccer and volleyball are just a few Spring intramural sports

By Bo Bowling
Staff Writer

For those students who are looking for a break from the havoc that college seems to bring, the time for intramural sports has arrived.

This spring the intramural staff has decided to feature 5-on-5 basketball. Sign-ups have already passed for this activity. Games began Jan. 23 and will be played on Thursdays, at 1:30 p.m., in the Georgia Highlands College gym.

Those looking for an outdoor sport can participate in co-ed softball. Sign-ups are Feb. 10-March 7. Games will be played on Wednesday afternoons at 1:30 p.m. on the softball field. The first pitch will be thrown on March 12.

For all the wannabe beach bums out there, a beach volleyball tournament will also be played this semester. Sign-ups are from Feb. 10 until March 7. Game dates have yet to be determined.

For the second time ever, soccer will also be offered at FC. Sign-ups started on Jan. 8 and will end Feb. 1. The FC soccer team will hold practices every Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. on the soccer field behind the gym. Players will have a chance to compete in the men’s YMCA adult soccer league.

FC will also offer the FIT program again this semester. FIT stands for Fitness Incentive Team. It is a program for students who just want some extra exercise. The program will last 12 weeks. Sign-ups have already passed and meeting dates will be posted with information on starting dates.

The annual Wesley Walraven Golf Tournament that was started in 1980 will also take place this semester. Dates were unknown for tee-off at the time of press.

Anyone wanting to participate can contact Dr. Ken Weatherman in the Physical Education Office.

There will also be an awards banquet held in the gym lobby on April 24 at 12:30 p.m. for those that participate in intramurals.

Anyone that has missed sign-up deadlines can still sign-up and join in on the fun.

For any additional information contact, David Mathis at [email protected] or call the Department of Physical Education at (706) 295-6353.
