German College Championships

As a member of the General German University Sports Association (adh), the University of Kassel participates in national and international college championships.

Each year, the adh organizes over 50 competitive events nationwide across more than 30 sports. The adh’s range of sports includes everything from the most popular ball sports and classic disciplines to the latest trend sports. Whether it’s the respective German University Championships, the University of Applied Sciences Championships, the adh Open, or the adh Cup events, there’s a sport for everyone.

Below this level of the adh competition program, there are often fun tournaments announced nationwide. This special form of competition is aimed at students and universities who, in addition to the matches at university championships, are looking for further opportunities to play and engage in student-cultural exchange. Here, athletes who first learned a sport through university athletics can also gain their first competitive experience.

Information on this can be found on the adh website.
