University of Padua students, faculty and staff enjoy special rates to the activities offered at the University Sports Centre (CUS Padova). CUS Padova organizes courses, events, and tournaments that promote sporting practice in various athletic disciplines.
As part of its efforts to promote well-being and sports, and with the aim of encouraging widespread participation in both competitive and non-competitive sports by students and staff at Cus sports facilities, the University is supporting a registration campaign offering free membership to Cus for the current year to the entire university community.
Becoming a member of CUS Padova grants access to a wide range of activities, services, and spaces for competitive and non-competitive sports, as well as recreational activities for all ages (fitness courses, urban dance, athletics, etc.).
Membership allows access to free activities during specific time slots, using Cus facilities (such as athletics, five-a-side football, tennis, basketball, volleyball), as well as discounted rates for paid activities like various courses.
Access to activities is governed by the Cus regulations available on the website www.cuspadova.it.
You can request Cus free membership by filling out an online form. For more information
