The Swimming marathon
The swimming Marathon will take place on the 23rd of November. The different student associations battle against each other in a four-hour long swimming competition. As the name implies, the goal is to swim as much as possible in the given time period. This event takes place in the GUSB.
12 Hour Run
The 12 hour run is, after Student Street Soccer, the biggest sport event of the academic year. This event, which will take place in april-may, is one big student party. The associations try to run as much laps as possible in twelve hours. It takes place at the Sint-Pietersplein. There is a lot of animation present, making this event extremely attractive to the students who love to do sports but also for the slightly less athletic student. Here we also have a strong reputation to defend. Last year we were fourth, but now we focus on the third place, that belongs to the VEK. Feel free to come and run as many laps as possible for us! The laps are about 300m long.
IFK
Here it is all about the individual sports, but there will also be a team ranking established, for the purpose of the classification of the Interfaculty Tournament. The individual sports are : judo, squash, cross country running, badminton, table tennis, e-sports and swimming
Team sports
Most organized sports are team sports for which each association can register. The team sports are: mini football, football, volleyball, rugby and basketball. Depending on the number of registered teams, the point system will be different and there will be played according to the knock-out system or groups prior to the final. The VEK won the trophy for football, women's volleyball and rugby, last time. This year we will defend our titles and compete for the other disciplines!
