Intramural soccer

Play

Sometimes the best remedy for long hours in the classroom is to blow off steam on the field. Whether you’re looking for that Victory Royale, or holding up a trophy at the end of a season, CU Active and their partners work to provide you a necessary break from your studies. You’ve worked hard, now it’s time to play hard.
