Intramurals
Penn College is proud to have 30 intramural athletics sports with more than 1000 students, faculty, and staff participating.
Intramurals are fun, recreational, social, and competitive on-campus sports activities for Pennsylvania College of Technology students. These are designed with the everyday athlete, just like you, in mind. This is a great opportunity for you to have some fun and to try that new sport you've always wanted to learn!
Students can view intramural schedules, results, clinics, rules, and Field House availability through the myPCT Portal.
