Morphology
extramurally = extramural (semi-transparent) = extra + mur + ally
The adverb is formed transparently from the adjective 'extramural'.
Etymology
Extramurally comes from extra- meaning 'outside' and mural meaning 'wall', so it gives the image of being 'outside the walls'. So when activities or competitions happen extramurally, they take place 'outside' your own institution, for example a school team playing against other schools.
