Pablo Alberola Talamantes, director of methodology of Villarreal CF, gave a lecture on Tuesday at the University of Debrecen. The Spanish expert described the new approach to the DVSC youth team since cooperation was made between Loki and Villareal. The focus is now on the players and the coaches' job is to help the players achieve their personal goals.
The University of Debrecen was the first and so far the only one in Hungary to achieve the highest platinum grade in the FISU Healthy Campus rating system. UD is currently one of only 38 institutions in the world with the highest rating in the area of quality of life and lifestyle on campus.
Nearly five thousand participants from four hundred and twenty-eight universities in thirty-seven countries attended the 2024 European University Games, organized by Debrecen-Miskolc. The events at both venues were characterized by unforgettable experiences, exciting matches and a wonderful atmosphere.
With athletes and referees taking their oaths and with the hoist of the flag of the European University Sports Association (EUSA), the European Universities Games officially began. About a thousand participants travelled with police escort from Debrecen to Miskolc where the grand opening ceremony was held.
The biggest ever Hungarian delegation will take part in the European University Games in Debrecen and Miskolc. Almost seven hundred athletes and officials from as many as twenty-two Hungarian institutions of higher education have registered for this multi-sport world event, which will attract more than five thousand participants altogether. The official mascot of the summer EUG, a playful lynx, has also been “unveiled.”
The citizens of Miskolc and Debrecen are excited about the challenge ahead as they will soon be hosting the European University Games, Europe's biggest university sporting event.
Commissioned by European University Sports Association (EUSA), the next European University Games (EUG) between July 12 and 24, 2024, will be hosted jointly by Hungarian University and College Sports Association (Magyar Egyetemi-Főiskolai Sportszövetség - MEFS), the University of Debrecen, the University of Miskolc, National Event Management Agency, the City of Debrecen and the City of Miskolc. More than 5,000 participants from as many as 400 universities in 40 countries are expected to participate in this multi-sport event, which will feature competitions in 17 branches and divisions of sport in the two cities.
The Summer European University Games (EUG) could set a new record for the number of entries. The first phase of registration is now closed and preliminary entries suggest that the 2024 event could be the biggest and most popular EUG ever. The University of Debrecen is also preparing a number of sports programmes ahead of the event, which starts on 12 July.
The European University Games (EUG), jointly organised this summer by the University of Debrecen and the University of Miskolc, will be a highlight at the largest Hungarian education exhibition. It was announced at the trade fair, which opened on Thursday at Hungexpo, that the organisers are now inviting applications for volunteer helpers for the July multi-sport event.
