General Information
The Sports committee is in charge of the organisation of all sports practiced on campus and was established to give UC students the opportunity to be active on campus together with their fellow students. Each committee-member is responsible for one the sports, forming the teams, collecting & paying fees, buying equipment etc. If you feel like being active, join one of our teams! Some play on-campus, others at off-campus facilities. Several play competition, others practice. Now, take a pick! The Soccer, Basketball and Volleyball teams practice and play in local competitions; there’s hockey practice once a week off-campus, and at least one tournament a year. Bridge and Chess are played on campus. Last but not least, there’s a well-equipped Gym on campus!
