Sport activies

Plenty of Sports Activ­i­ties! Inter­ested in golf, kick­box­ing, curling or etno­bick? Willing to play floor­ball or foot­ball in a national level league?

There are dozens of sports clubs in Joensuu, every­thing from martial arts to petanque and from tradi­tional indi­vid­ual level sports to team sports, even on national level. Besides sports club activ­i­ties, you can do sports in many of the sports centres in the city and in the beau­ti­ful nature surround­ing Joensuu. If looking for more extreme expe­ri­ences, you can try sliding on ice with a snow­board and a paraglider, and if looking for peace and quiet, you can cross-country ski.

Besides, Karelia UAS Student Union POKA, Karelia UAS, Univer­sity of Eastern Finland (UEF) and Student Union of the Univer­sity of Eastern Finland (ISYY) provides a great selec­tion of sports services to all students in Joensuu. Check out the SYKETTÄ Calen­dar to find the opportunities.

Karelia Univer­sity of Applied Sciences provides an oppor­tu­nity to combine studies with world-class sports. If you are an athlete wishing to combine study­ing and goal-oriented athlet­ics, you have a possi­bil­ity to join Joensuu Sports Academy to train and study at the same time!
