After becoming a large part of the school in the previous school year, the scheduling and managing website now controls all aspects of Intramural and Club Sports. If students wish to join or play any sports this year, it\u2019s important for them to familiarize themselves with the site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Intramural and club sports are very popular activities among the student body at Western.
