At Jacobs, leisure sport activities are offered through our sports clubs, while sports teams practise their respective sport competitively.

Jacobs Sports Teams represent the University in national and international competitions. Due to the German sports system, Jacobs Teams cooperate with local Sports Clubs, which give them the possibility for weekly league games, e.g. for Soccer and Volleyball.


University sports activites as well as the sports facilities are coordinated and overseen by the sports coordinator Michele Lapenna. For more information call him at: 200-4318 or email: m.lapenna@jacobs-university.de.
