Great news for the 2021-2022 sport season
This year, the start of the sport season marked the start of the university’s water sports project which currently includes the competitive swimming and water polo teams, with the possibility of expanding the project to also apnea and master swimming courses. The idea of Bocconi Sport is to expand the offer of sports accessible to the entire Bocconi community and create competitive teams that contribute towards maintaining and improving the university’s sports reputation.
The new Bocconi Sport Center, with the fantastic Olympic-sized pool, which can host official competitions with a grandstand that seats 400, and a 25 m training pool, was our launch pad.
The tryouts for our competitive swimming and water polo teams had unprecedented success: approximately 75 young men tried out for the water pool team and approx. 60 young men and women for the swimming team.
Furthermore, more than 25% of international students coming from all over the world participated in the tryouts.
