Traditions that Started Before or in 1980 and Still Practiced

Intramural broomball is a winter-time tradition at Carleton. It is similar to hockey but brooms are used instead of sticks, balls instead of pucks and it’s played only on shoes. This game is open to people of all skill levels who want to have fun and enjoy some friendly competition. Here’s a fun video introducing broomball at Carleton!
