Intramural Sports Leagues

One has the ability to create a team; form a name, choose a team color, add players, communicate with head officials, and carry the responsibility of the team, etc.

Captains can invite members to their team in two ways:

• If student has already registered on imleagues:
  • Click the “Invite Members” link on the team page
  • Search for their name
  • Invite them
• If student has not yet registered on imleagues:
  • Click the “Invite Members” link on the team page
  • Click the “Can’t find someone? Click here to invite by email address”
  • Input the students UB email address

Pay online through IMLeagues. Your roster does not have to be complete to pay.

One typically accepts an email invitation, via IMLeagues, from the captain. This completes the process of officially joining a team. Or your could request to join:

You know the team you want to join:

• Search for the team and captain name on division page
• Request to join

You know the captain of the team you want to join:

• Search for the captain’s playercard page

One is interested in playing the sport but does not have a set team. A free agent is able to set up a player profile that will be seen by teams who are looking for more players. Captains and free agents may communicate to find the right fit and join the roster for the semester.
