Public German University Sports Society

With Public German University Sports Society (adh) everything is possible. The governing body of currently 142 institutions offers sport and travel enthusiasts an opportunity to participate through “Camp Pool” in travel activities of adh-member universities. Many universities also offer in their course and travel program places for guests from other high schools. Thus those who study in Flensburg can with a bit of luck take part in leisure skiing through a university in South Germany. Alternatively students from München may want to feel the wind of the Baltic sea on their faces in summer. One has to find the Camp Pool on adh homepage at www.adh.de There you will also find the central International Winter Camp offered by adh which is a meeting point for students of all over the world. Through common leisure sports activities and self-organized everyday life in the Camp the participants learn personal stories of life and studies of their fellow students from other nations. The sun, snow fun and a good team spirit are guaranteed due to Kleinwalsertal, the place where the Camp is situated, adh students support team and already legendary international cooking and party nights. For interested participants the Camp also offers skiing lessons.

You will also get additional information at your university sport office. From adh fliers displayed there you can find information on the further adh events, e.g. students orientation workshops, specific sports advanced training or seminars dedicated to health, fitness, female sports, ecology or integration sport.
