  • German University Championships

    Every year, around 40 German University Championships in 35 different sports are organized by the General German University Sports Association (adh) and its member universities. Recreational athletes and elite athletes compete together for their university. The focus is not just on comparing performances, but also on sharing ideas and having fun.

  • adh Open

    This is the national competition for all sports that are not part of the adh's canon of sports and therefore cannot host German university championships. Among some individual sports, there are classics, such as surfing, where the focus is less on performance.

    Universiades are the world student games held every two years. With almost 10,000 participants from over 150 countries in the summer and more than 3,500 participants in the winter, they are the second largest sporting event after the Olympic Games.
