IMPORTANCE
To conduct the intramurals is itself a great development of the entire department that students and teachers got experience of organizing different competitions in different conditions. Below are some important points that portray its necessity.

Fosters Social Connections: Intramural sports provide opportunities for students from different backgrounds and academic disciplines to interact and build friendships. Team sports, in particular, promote camaraderie, teamwork, and sportsmanship.
Develops Leadership Skills: Intramurals offer opportunities for students to take on leadership roles as team captains, coaches, or organizers. These experiences help students develop leadership, communication, and decision-making skills that are valuable both academically and professionally.
Enhances Time Management: Balancing academic responsibilities with extracurricular activities like intramurals teaches students effective time management skills. Learning to prioritize tasks and allocate time for both academics and recreation is crucial for academic success.
Promotes School Spirit and Unity: Intramural competitions often create a sense of school pride and unity among students. Representing their university in sports events fosters a sense of belonging and loyalty to the institution.
Encourages Healthy Competition: Intramural sports provide a platform for healthy competition among students. Competing in a supportive environment promotes fair play, respect for opponents, and the ability to both win and lose graciously.
Improves Academic Performance: Research suggests that students who participate in extracurricular activities, including intramurals, often perform better academically. Engaging in physical activity can improve cognitive function, concentration, and academic achievement.
Provides Networking Opportunities: Intramurals often involve interactions with faculty, staff, and alumni who may serve as mentors or provide valuable networking opportunities for students as they prepare for post-graduate endeavors.
Promotes Lifelong Fitness Habits: Engaging in intramural sports encourages the development of lifelong fitness habits. By experiencing the enjoyment and benefits of physical activity during their university years, students are more likely to continue leading active lifestyles after graduation.
In summary, organizing intramurals in universities offers a myriad of benefits that contribute to the holistic development and well-being of students, faculty, and the university community as a whole.
