Sports
Team sports
Most of the organized sports are, of course, team sports for which each student association can sign up.
These sports include (mini)football, volleyball, and basketball. Depending on the number of teams registered, the point system varies, and the competition is either played in a knockout format or with group stages leading up to the final. Last year, VEK made it far in both football and volleyball. This year, we'll be fighting for the trophies.
IFK
Here, we're talking about the individual sports, which also contribute to the overall points ranking.
These sports include judo, running, badminton, table tennis, and swimming.
Big events!
Monday, November 4th is THE sports tournament of the year for students, so be sure to mark this date in your calendar. Throughout the day, the FK associations will compete against each other in various sports, with prizes awarded for each sport. The tournament will take place in and around the GUSB facilities. The organized sports include football, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, a water sports track run, swimming, and the praesidium championship.
Last year, VEK finished in fourth place, but this year our ambition is to reclaim our spot on the podium.
The 12-hour run will take place this year on Tuesday, April 29th. All teams will have twelve hours to complete as many laps as possible around Sint-Pietersplein. Alongside the race, there will be plenty of side activities and a DJ booth for those less inclined to participate in sports. We have a strong reputation to uphold here as well. Last year, we finished fifth, but this time we’re putting VLK and VGK in their place—the podium is reserved for VEK.
Feel free to stop by, soak up the atmosphere, run a lap, and enjoy a drink with us in the tent.
The Swimming Marathon will take place this year on November 27th. The various registered student associations will compete in a three-hour swimming competition. The goal is for your association to swim as many laps as possible within this time frame. This event will be held at the GUSB.
Party Padel Tournament
This year, the second edition of the Party Padel Tournament will take place on March 6th at the Garrincha courts.
Not in the mood to play? No problem! Come cheer from the sidelines and dance to our beats well into the night!
