Competitions

Batavierenrace

Every April, the largest relay race in the world will take place called the Batavierenrace. The route runs from the center of Nijmegen, via Germany, the quiet Achterhoek and the Oude Markt in the heart of Enschede to the campus of the University of Twente.

The total running distance is 175 kilometers and is divided into 25 stages.

This is the biggest event of the year and is also the most fun! And afterwards there is always a big party at the end at the University of Twente.

The nice thing about this relay race is that you are in control of the distance you run with your team. So you can either choose to run a short distance or a longer one. The more people that sign up, the shorter the distance you have to run.

Normally, there is also a team for Fast Runners via Maastricht University. For everyone there is a opportunity to compete with the Batavierenrace.

Unfortunately, this year (2024-2025) the Bata has been canceled as they did not find enough people to organize it.

Club Championships

The Club Championships always take place during the last practice of the academic year, often in June. During this evening, the following disciplines will be performed: 100 metres, javelin, long-jump and 800 metres. The evening will be closed with a delicious pizza and the results will be published on Facebook later that evening or the next day.

UROS Teamrace

Annually, the middle of April is the starting shot for the team race of Maastricht: the Team Race. In the Team Race it is not important whom of your Team is the first to cross the finish line. On the contrary, the time of the last person in your team counts; so make sure you as a team make a great effort!
In short, an annual event with a unique character: a mixture of sports and cooperation!
