An intramural sports program provides elementary school children opportunities to participate in physical activities beyond physical education classes. It reinforces skills learned in class, builds new skills, and fosters cooperation among students. Every school should have an intramural program organized by teachers and a coordinator. The program is balanced and tailored to the school's facilities and equipment. It allows all ability levels to participate in a competitive but supportive environment. An intramural handbook can help organize activities and ensure a quality program that benefits students.
