And every year, a smaller percentage of UC Davis newcomers, those fortunate enough to earn the honor of wearing Aggie blue and gold for a UCD Intercollegiate Athletic program-proudly flaunt their new team attire. But one does not need to play on a varsity sport to represent the elite Aggie colors. Each year, more than 14,000 UCD students play on over 2,000 Intramural sports teams, in 26 different men's, women's and coed sports. IM sports offer a wide array of competitive games, from basketball to inner tube water polo, from softball to floor hockey, and from indoor soccer to flag football.
Every sport has different levels of competition.
The top level consists of solid athletes with a strong desire to remain active in competitive sports, and play is taken quite seriously. The lower levels and coed leagues still remain competitive, but some divisions are more recreational and less intense. It's a good time to go out with your friends and play sports, and they have whatever you're looking for. Either games against really good athletes, or a more laid back, relaxed atmosphere. Many sports at UCD cannot be offered as varsity sports due to Title IX restrictions and limited school funding, and have thus been deemed Club Sports.
