Q: What do you enjoy about playing intramurals?

A: “It’s a great time to have fun with your brothers in club, and it is also an amazing opportunity to reflect Jesus to your teammates and the other club you are playing. I also love how we end each game with a prayer. It’s a great reminder of how, even though we are a part of different clubs, we can still be unified.”
