If varsity intercollegiate competition isn’t what you’re looking for, check out UW-Stevens Point at Wausau’s intramural activities. Intramurals are fun, recreational, social and mildly-competitive sport activities that give you the chance to meet new people, take a break from the books, lead a healthier lifestyle and have fun!

UW-Stevens Point at Wausau and Northcentral Technical College partner together to create an extensive intramural sports program for all students. Outdoor sports are located on the grounds of NTC and indoor sports are located in UW-Stevens Point at Wausau’s field house. Participation is open to NTC and UW-Stevens Point at Wausau students and employees, as well as to students enrolled at the Medical College of Wisconsin – Central Wisconsin or UW-Madison’s WisPACT program on the UW-Stevens Point at Wausau campus.

All intramural registration is online and available at www.imleagues.com/NTC-UWMC/Registration. Participants have three registration options (create a team, join a team or become a free agent). NTC, UWSP-Wausau, MCW-CW, and WisPACT participants are allowed to be on the same roster.
