SPORTS INTRAMURAL
Facilities/Equipment:
Critical to any sports activity program are adequate facilities and equipment to support the
program. However, lack of sophisticated gymnasium facilities and large budgets for equipment
should not deter provision of programs. Programs may be modified and adapted to meet the
budget and space available.
Basic guidelines include:
Facilities should be adequate to meet the needs, interests, safety and number of students
participating.
Equipment and supplies for the intramural program should be budgeted apart from the
physical education instructional budget. While some equipment may be shared, each
program’s needs should be considered.
Equipment must be modified when required by age, size and/or physical ability of the
participants.
Appropriate maintenance should be provided for facilities and equipment so that they
meet basic standards for cleanliness and safety.
When new facilities are to be built, or new equipment purchased, all physical
education/intramural staff should be consulted to ensure that needs are met. Students
should also be given an opportunity for input.
Awards:
The emphasis of an intramural program should be on participation and fun. Winning and losing
are part of the process but should not be a primary focus. If awards are to be given they should
be for recognition of achievement and not excessive in nature. If possible, some recognition
should be available for participation regardless of win/loss records. All students should be made
to feel that they are a winner by virtue of their participation and not because of the relative
points scored.
TOURNAMENT
What is a Tournament?
A tournament is a series of games or matches that are used to decide the winner of a
competition. In sports, a tournament is often used at the conclusion of the season to crown the
league’s champion. Tournaments are usually conducted over a short period of time. The
tournament format indicates the matchups and the criteria for advancement and elimination.
TYPES OF TOURNAMENT
There are various types of tournaments. Some of the important tournament are listed below:
1. SINGLE ELIMINATION
A type of elimination determines the winner by eliminating the loser in every
match until there is one team left.
The easiest and fastest way to declare a winner.
Disadvantage: A good team may itself get eliminated by chance and has no more
chance to show its real worth.
This type of elimination is best used when:
o The number of entries is large.
o The time is short.
o The number of playing venue is limited.
How to compute the Number of Games using the Formula in Single Elimination type of
tournament?
FORMULA: G= N-1
Where: G – Number of Games
N – Number of Entries (or team/s)
How to compute the Number of Byes using the Formula in Single Elimination type of
tournaments?
Note: Computing of Bye is
FORMULA: applied in all types of Elimination
Where:
P – The least power of 2 higher than N
Note: P is a fixed value – 2, 4, 8, 16, 32…. (2x2=4x2=8x2=16x2=32…)
N – Number of Entries (or team/s)
BYE – entitles a team to advance to the next round without playing.
- Able to play during the second round.
Let’s Try!
EXAMPLE WITH NO BYE
1. There are 4 participating teams in Basketball
Step 1: Use the formula for Single Elimination:
G = N-1 Note: NO BYE SINCE THE NUMBER OF TEAMS IS CLOSE
G = 4-1
TO 4 (remember the rule of Power of 2)
G=3
D
Step 3: Assign Byes and pair the remaining teams (If there are Byes)
NO BYE SINCE THE NUMBER OF TEAMS IS CLOSE TO 4 (remember the rule of Power of 2)
Step 4: Write the game numbers
F
Step 3: Assign Byes and pair the remaining teams
6 teams: 2 Byes (from step 1)
Let’s Try!
EXAMPLE WITH NO BYE
1. There are 4 participating teams in Basketball
Step 1: Use the formula for Double Elimination
G = 2(N-1) Note: NO BYE SINCE THE NUMBER OF TEAMS IS CLOSE
G = 2(4-1)
TO 4 (remember the rule of Power of 2)
G = 2(3)
G=6
D
Step 3: Assign Byes and pair the remaining teams (If there are Byes)
NO BYE SINCE THE NUMBER OF TEAMS IS CLOSE TO 4 (remember the rule of Power of 2)
Step 4: Write the game numbers
EXAMPLE WITH BYE
2. There are 6 participating teams in Basketball.
Step 1: Use the formula for Double Elimination
G = 2(N-1)
G = 2(6-1)
G = 2(5)
G = 10
Step 2: Assign letters to the participating teams
A
EXAMPLE ON ODD
2. There are 5 participating teams in Basketball
Step 1: Use the formula for Round Robin
P.E. TRIVIA....
Did you know that according to “John Cannon’s Dictionary of
British History,” tournaments began as military competitions.
The first tournament were equestrian and military competitions
that were held in Europe at around the year 1000.
