Cheerleaders and fans support their team with loud fan chants, drums, waving flags, and giant signs, turning the event into a special athletic experience.
The best cheerleading show is rewarded with an honorary prize from the Freunde und Förderer des Aachener Hochschulsports, FuFAH for short, and is one of the highlights of the annual ice spectacle.
The Ice Hockey Uni Cup doesn't just serve to entertain the approximately 3,000 spectators, but also serves a good cause. Proceeds raised from the event are donated to international and regional projects and organizations. Over the years, the HSZ has worked with many different donor recipients.
Anyone who doesn't want to miss this unique sports event should secure a coveted ticket quickly.
The places where the tickets will be sold, will not be announced this year. The student representatives have come up with something special.
Those who don’t manage to get one of the highly sought-after tickets this year will have the chance to follow the exciting games and the spectacular cheerleader show via the “Livestream provided by NetAachen” on the official RWTH Aachen YouTube channel.
Every year the student representative councils look for new teams, who ensure action on the ice and fans' good moods! Anyone interested can sign up as a player or cheerleader via an email to your student representative council:
