Sport at CSC2006

The Sport Programme proposed to the participants has been designed by Tapio Lampen with guidance from the School Director. Tapio is the coordinator of the programme at the school.

What are the objectives of the sport programme?

  • The participation to sport activities is fully voluntary (as is the participation  to other social activities)

  • The aim is to provide opportunities for refreshing activities in particular  before the final afternoon working sessions (as an alternative to the free study hours)

  • It also provides additional opportunities for interactions between students and lecturers / organizers

What, when and where?

  • Most of the activities will be proposed during afternoons in facilities close to the School Campus.

  • One special event (football match) will take place the second Wednesday afternoon, on a specially reserved football pitch.
