Athletics at IMS has a philosophy of developing athletes first, and results come second, so they are best prepared for being an athlete in high school. The method this is implemented is through:
Monitoring student grades, and only allowing participation if they are academically eligibleHolding athletes accountable for their behavior in classGiving balanced, prepared playing time to all athletes on a teamPrioritizing skills and knowledge of the game(s) over plays and schemes
Through fundraising, Irving Intramurals is hoping to replenish and replace items that are annually consumed, worn, or in need of replacement. These items include:
Medical kit suppliesBalls for soccer, volleyball, and basketballConsumable items like mat tape/cleaner and mops for wrestling, field paint for soccer and track & fieldPlaying equipment for athletes: knee pads for volleyball, shin guards and goalie gloves for soccerPractice equipment: soccer goals/nets, basketball nets, and new high jump standards for track & field
