Studying in Passau: The 5 best offers in university sports

Studying in Passau can be hard, especially during the exam phase. To make studying a little more bearable, you repeatedly go to the fridge; another ice cream won't hurt. The disadvantage of the matter: Your guilty conscience shows up. The advantage: You can quickly calm it down by registering for one of the many university sports courses!

In addition to the usual suspects such as football, swimming, tennis or volleyball, there are also more exotic offers that you shouldn't miss out on while studying in Passau and for just €10 per semester .

Ahoy, you landlubbers!

In the future, you can shout this to the students walking along the Inn in Passau when you sign up for the rowing team . Here you will learn what teamwork means, meet other students in Passau and become one with the water through the harmonious movement.

After rowing, you can unwind and relax in the boathouse at the Inn reservoir before heading back to your desk. In Passau, students are offered both beginner and advanced courses, including hiking trips to Austria, for example.

Swing the bat!

Water and relaxation are not your thing, but rather team sports and competition? Then you should join the lacrosse team . This old Indian sport offers students in Passau the right balance: with a helmet, gloves and protectors, you throw yourself into the game and challenge your entire body - just the thing for everyone who wants to work out a lot!

Discus throwing and studying in Passau

If you've always enjoyed throwing a Frisbee, the Ultimate Frisbee team is the right place for you! This variant has some similarities to football and basketball and challenges both your physical and mental performance.

The aim is to use speed, technique and tactical thinking to pass the disc to your other six team members and get it into the opponent's end zone. Fun and fitness combined sounds perfect!

Grab the golden snitch

If you are one of the large number of people who are devastated because Hogwarts doesn't exist and still wait eagerly for the acceptance letter every day, studying in Passau allows you to get a little closer to your dream: just join the local one Quidditch team Three River Dragons at!

Since we Muggles unfortunately lack the magic needed to fly, you run across the field with your broom and try to score as many points as possible with targeted ball throws. If you're particularly fast, you might even be suitable as a Snitch Runner who is being chased by the Seeker.

Greetings to the sun!

For you, all of the previous offers sound too stressful and not at all relaxing? Then say Namaste and sign up for the yoga class! The individual exercises flow harmoniously into one another and make your body strong and flexible, and they also provide you with new energy and relaxation at the same time to reduce the stress of studying in Passau!

If none of the courses mentioned appeal to you, don't be disappointed - these are the courses offered during the semester break, and many other sports will be offered in the coming winter semester, such as kickboxing aerobics or Capoeira, a Brazilian combat dance. Just take a look at the university website and always be up to date!
