Program Policies

Code of Conduct

The Intramural Sports and Recreation Program is specifically designed to provide opportunities for students, faculty and staff to have fun, socialize, manage stress and improve personal health and wellness by participating in organized competitive sports and recreational activities. All students are expected to adhere to the Pitt Community College Student Code of Conduct, and the following:

  • Physical or verbal abuse of the officials is prohibited.
  • The presence of alcohol or other drugs consumed on the premises or before coming to the premises or any Intramural Sports & Recreation sponsored event.
  • Only team captains have the right to approach officials to question a call or discuss the rules, and this can only be done in a polite manner. Officials will only talk to the team captains in a calm manner, and will not use profanity or threatening behavior.
  • Profanity or aggressive gestures towards other players, officials, coordinators, or administrators will not be tolerated and could possibly result in an ejection from the game and/or suspension for the remaining intramural sports season, depending on decision made by Coordinator and Vice President of Student Development Services.
  • Verbal abuse of any kind towards anyone in the facility could result in an ejection or possible removal from Intramural Sports, depending on the decision made by Coordinator and Vice President of Student Development Services.
  • Fighting will result in an immediate ejection.
  • A participant will be ejected if they mistreat the facilities or equipment.
  • Captains may also be ejected from the game for the behavior of their team.

League Policies

  • An individual may participate for only one team per activity.
  • His/her first official participation attaches him/her to that group for that activity.

  • To be eligible for playoffs, a player must have played in one of the team’s regular season games.
  • No roster additions are permitted during post-season, tournament play.

  • Only two PCC student athletes may be on a single team’s roster, with only one on the court/field during any given time.
  • All game rescheduling needed by team captains, should be done through the Intramural Coordinator or Technical Assistant 24 hours in advance. Failure to do so will result in a team forfeit.
  • Two team forfeitures will result in team suspension from the intramural league for the duration of the remaining season.
