Taster courses: Participate and Try Things Out

As the largest sports provider in the region, the University Sports Center offers up to 100 taster events as part of the RWTH FH Sports Day, in which anyone can participate free of charge. RWTH FH Sports Day is an outstanding opportunity to try out the more unusual activities like lacrosse, gym wheel gymnastics, and ultimate frisbee in addition to the traditional sports like soccer, tennis, and volleyball.

Tournaments, and Institute Olympiad

As part of the RWTH FH Sports Day, there will be tournaments in six different sports, both indoors and outdoors, where players of all abilities will get their money's worth. There are tournaments in badminton, beach volleyball, cage soccer, football, streetball, tennis, and table tennis.

An additional highlight aside from the numerous tournaments is the institute olympiad, where different institutes and institutions of the Aachen universities compete in exciting disciplines. Registration is required in advance for the tournaments and the Institute Olympics. In order to really see the entire spectrum of the University Sports' offers, no lectures are held at RWTH and the FH in the afternoon. In the evening the victorious teams from the institute olympiad and other tournaments are honored on a central stage at Stadion Königshügel.

Cozy Ending in the Chillout Lounge and Then Onwards to the Aftershow Party!

After the award ceremony participants can head to the chillout lounge to end the day in a cozy environment with musical accompaniment. The crowning conclusion is the aftershow party in the Apollo organized by the RWTH Students' Union Committee.
