Share your experience and participate in the draw

The European Week of Sports invites the university community to share their experience on social media. From 20 to 30 September, those who participate can post photos and videos practicing a sport in the facilities of the Sports Service, during the trainings of the university teams or in the activities and sport schools of the UV.

To participate in the draw, it is necessary to belong to the university community of the Universitat de València, post a photo or video on Facebook, X or Instagram, and tag the official account of UVesports, @uvesports_, including the hastagh #setmanaeuropeadelesportUV.

Among the participants, equipment of the UV teams will be drawn. The draw will take place on 6 October and 5 winners will be randomly selected in each social media, whose names will be announced on the website and on the social media of Sports Services. 

The complete programme, with activities, timetables and spaces of every campus, will be available on the programme of the European Week of UVsports.

The initiative intends to bring sports practice closer to all the university community and encourage students, personal staff, researchers and technical staff of management and administration services to incorporate the physical activity to their university life.
