South intramurals ready for sign ups
by Rawly Bransom, Sports Editor


   Fitness buffs and sports enthusiasts can find something to fit their needs on South Campus this semester.
   Intramural action is gearing up and all students are invited to participate.
   Monday marked the beginning of sign ups for table tennis, 4-on-4 volleyball, 5-on-5 co-rec flag football, outdoor soccer, racquetball and the Latino Student Union vs. faculty/staff soccer game.
   "We on the South Campus look forward to meeting the diverse Wellness needs of our campus through a variety of intramural and recreational activities this fall," Scott Clark, South Campus intramural and recreational sports director, said.
   Table tennis and 4-on-4 volleyball start play Thursday, Sept. 11. Times for these events will be given at registration.
   Those interested in volleyball can sign up a full team or have teams assigned after the sign-up period has ended.
   Racquetball begins Thursday, Sept. 18, while flag football starts Tuesday, Sept. 23.
   The LSU/faculty/staff soccer game and outdoor soccer will begin in October.
   Official sign up for the Century Club, an incentive-based wellness program, begins Monday, Sept. 8.
   According to HPE documents, the Century Club encourages students, faculty and staff on South Campus to pursue aerobic exercise.
   The wellness program continues throughout the semester with participants choosing among running, Stairmaster, cycling and walking.
   Participants must complete their exercises on the South Campus during free play and open recreation instead of during HPE classes. Participants must record their mileage and checkout at the end of their workoouts.
   To sign-up for any event, participants need a photo identification card and a copy of their academic schedule/payment receipt.
   Registration is at the HPE check-in counter in the gym.
