SPORTS UNIT

The aim of the University Community Life Department's sports project is to encourage students to learn and improve in one or more disciplines.

Sport is certainly a form of relaxation, but to be effective it must take place in a rigorous context.

It should encourage spontaneity, physical development and mental and physical balance.
