Intramural flag football signups to start today at the Rec.

By Bob Grant

Intramural flag football signups begin at 2 p.m. today and are expected to fill up within two to three hours, said NIU Intramural and Sport Club Director Galen Mahle.

The lobby of the Office of Campus Recreation will host the signups. There will be six divisions and 60 teams total.

“Unfortunately, we can’t expand our leagues because of the few daylight hours we have to work with,” Mahle said.

There is competitive and highly-competitive divisions of men’s, women’s and co-rec.

Each team must consist of at least seven players and the cost is $35 per team.

Students can pick up a signup sheet at the Student Rec Center as early as 7 a.m. today. The sheet asks for a roster, captain and team name.

The first day of games will be Oct. 11.
