Dear students,
We would like to inform you that, due to a cable fault, the telephones in the sports complex are not working. You can contact lecturers only via their email addresses or in person at the sports complex.
Sport is a compulsory subject for all full-time first- and second-year students and an optional subject for third-year students. The groups are not organised by faculty but are mixed and categorised by sport, with sessions taking place once a week.
Enrolment in a specific sports group must be coordinated with the day and time of the faculties’ weekly timetables, i.e. it must be ONLY during a free period to avoid overlapping with other classes and lectures. Every student must be aware of the day, time and name of their instructor. You can view a sample programme for the weekly sports timetables here.
Sports sessions take the form of practical training sessions at the Technical University of Sofia sports complex, in accordance with the weekly programme of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports.
a) At the first sports session of the semester at the TU Sofia Sports Complex – DFVS, you will be met by the instructors of the relevant sports groups for which you have registered online.
b) The timetable for the sports sessions will be displayed at the entrances and on the noticeboards at the TU Sofia – DFVS sports complex.
c) Each session lasts 90 minutes (2 teaching hours of 45 minutes each).
Requirements: Sports kit and clean trainers/sports shoes, to be worn exclusively indoors in the sports halls, are compulsory.
Credit for the sports module is awarded upon fulfilment of the attendance and participation requirements.
Students with health issues that prevent them from participating in the ‘Sport’ module during the relevant semester of the academic year may submit their medical documents to the Sports Complex at TU Sofia – DFVS, to Dr Antoaneta Dimova, within the specified deadline.
TU Sofia has representative teams in the following sports: Aerobics and Cheerleading, Badminton, Basketball, Combat Sports, Judo, Volleyball, Rowing, Athletics, Swimming, Tennis, Table Tennis, Skiing, Cross-country Skiing, Snowboarding, Orienteering, Football, Handball, Chess.
Students who are active athletes may join the teams following an interview and approval by the relevant coach.
