Event Information: Have you ever played the board game, Battleship? Well now, you get to play the real-life version! We will put teams in canoes, give them some buckets, and let them try to sink each other. The last boat afloat at the end of the night will be full of Intramural Champions! This event is part of our Intramural Sports Friday Night Series. The Friday Night Series is a series of late night events put on by the Intramural Sports program. There will be FREE pizza, prizes given away, and participation is FREE! You can participate in one Friday Night Series event, or you can participate in all of them ...it's all up to you!
Registration Information: Pre-Registration begins on Monday, Aug. 19 at 8 a.m. During Pre-Registration, captains can start their teams, and begin sending invitations to teammates to build the roster. Once official registration opens at 8 a.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 19, you can move your team to the "Tournament" division, once you have four players on your roster. Moving your team to the Tournament division just confirms that you plan to be there! Your team must be moved to the Tournament division to complete your registration by the time registration closes on Wednesday, Dec. 4 at 11:59 p.m. Instructions on how to start a team, or how to join a team, can be found on our IMLeagues Registration Instructions page.

Event Format: Teams will be placed into "Heats." The number of heats, and number of teams per heat, will depend on the number of teams registered. The last one, two, or three boats afloat in each heat will advance to the next round. Every team will have the opportunity to participate in at least two heats.
