To ensure that university sports run smoothly and under optimal conditions for everyone involved, there is one important rule: changing shoes. Having clean indoor shoes with you, ready in your bag, not only speeds up the check‑in at the entrance but also shows respect for the sports facilities and the other participants.
Dust, sand, and moisture from outside affect floor traction in the halls. A dirty surface leads to unpredictable slipping, increasing the risk of injuries for all participants.
The specialized floor coverings are sensitive to damage caused by street dirt. Small stones in the tread create scratches and destroy the sealant. This results in costly renovations and associated hall closures in the long term.
Since many sports activities involve floor exercises, a clean training area is essential for a hygienic environment. Separating outdoor shoes from indoor sports shoes ensures a standard that benefits all groups equally.
To maintain these conditions, wearing clean, personal indoor shoes with abrasion‑resistant (non‑marking) soles is required. Shoes can be changed in the locker rooms or in designated zones. Consistently following this rule ensures smooth entry and optimal training conditions for the entire student body.
