The
City 6 Extramural Classic was founded in 1986 by representatives
from Temple University and Saint Joseph's University as a way
to encourage recreational sports and social interaction among
the city universities. The first championship tournament
was held that fall at the University of Penn’s Franklin
Field. |

Today, tournaments
are held at venues throughout the area, including some of the
best collegiate facilities in the city such as the Palestra, Villanova
Football Stadium and Saint Joseph's Alumni Hall! Since 1986, over
600 teams have represented their schools in over 200 tournaments.
The Extramural Classic has been a frequent focus at regional and
national conferences and serves as a model for other programs
and institutions. |

City 6 Symposium On Wednesday, May 23rd, the City 6 schools met for the first annual City 6 Symposium. The day included intramural, wellness, facilities, and instructional class roundtables, a "what's new in recreation" group discussion, and various special presentations. Vince Papali, formerly from the Philadelphia Eagles and real life star of the Disney movie, "Invincible" was the keynote speaker. Ultimately, the entire day was an invaluable sharing of ideas.
