At Williams each year the sport of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broomball broomball] is played so long as there is ice on the [[Lansing Chapman Rink]]. The [[intramural sports|IM ]] version typically attracts between 500-600 people each year, making it the most popular sport played by all Ephs[[Eph]]s. If you've been to Williams, chances are you've been to a broomball match.
Typically, [[entry|entries ]] make up a large body of the IM broomball league, but "[[classes]]" in broomball are also offered during the winter for interested parties to play with other fellow broomball lovers.
The varsity [[Golf ]] Team won both the 2004 and 2006 championships, only failing to win in 2005 because [[Harry Sheehy ]] canceled the playoffs - over in response to complaints that shoes were getting the ice dirty.
People often get drunk or "[[pregaming|pregame]]" before a broomball match. This means falling hurts less at the time and much more in the morning. Being drunk at a broomball game also means that you might accidentally stick-check someone very very hard as you try to swat the ball away. (Sorry about that one!)
