Nobody denies the intense role athletics play at UW. For Saturday Badger Football games, any number of houses will start the athletic support by throwing parties and getting decked out in Badger wear, complete with body paint and large posters, all before nine a.m. The football stadium has a special student seating section that is crowded with supportive, sometimes intoxicated students. While football is probably the most viewed and attended sport, there are many other athletic events. Intramurals are offered through the athletic department and even different resident halls. IM sports are taken relatively seriously, though viewed more as a social activity than a true athletic event.
Overall, UW does not lack in providing athletic opportunities. For those needing serious and heavy competition, varsity sports are the place to be in. Many of UW's teams are successful and will travel for conference and tournament events. Students wanting something more low-key should check out intramurals. You form your own team and compete against other teams on campus. Lastly, if you're looking for something a little different, check out the club sports. Students can pick-up aikido, figure skating, or wakeboarding.
