A unifying event and showcase for university sports
At midday, boxers from leading Hauts-de-France universities - Lille, ULCO, Artois, Reims and Amiens - will open the competition with the traditional weigh-in session. The fights will start at 2pm and continue into the early evening (expected to finish at 8pm).
This event, which is entirely open to the public, offers an opportunity to discover the intensity of a discipline on the rise in university sports.
On a national scale, UPHF and the University of Lille are among the top sports associations in this discipline, occupying respectively the 3rde and 2nde places in the national ranking by number of medals. A solid indicator that guarantees a high level of opposition, against a backdrop of qualification stakes.
An event supported by the excellence of PESU
Many of the athletes taking part in the competition come from the Pôle d'Excellence Sportif Universitaire (PESU), a scheme that enables top-level student athletes to reconcile sporting and academic success.
By offering reinforced support, dedicated training, access to Student high-level sportsman (SHN) status, individualized planning. PESU is contributing to the emergence of a generation of multi-skilled athletes, capable of performing as well in the ring as they do in their academic careers.
