At the preliminary round of the German University Championship for men's volleyball, which was held on May 3, 2025 in the Beethovenstraße 16 sports hall of the TU Braunschweig University Sports Centre, the WG Braunschweig team won a thrilling final against the University of Göttingen in the third set in a tie-break. This qualifies the Braunschweig volleyball players for the final tournament in Karlsruhe in June, where they will have the opportunity to compete against the best university volleyball teams from all over Germany.
In addition to two teams from Braunschweig, the teams from the universities and competition associations from Bochum, Göttingen, Mainz and Wuppertal took part in the match day in Braunschweig. The matches were initially played in two groups of three, from which Braunschweig 1 and Göttingen as well as Bochum and Mainz emerged as semi-finalists. While the hosts from Braunschweig won their semi-final against Mainz quite comfortably, the second semi-final was particularly hard-fought in the second set, but in the end the University of Göttingen won 2:0, so that the final was a repeat of the last group match of the preliminary round. The team from Braunschweig had won this match 25:15 and 25:19.
However, the tide seemed to turn in the final, with the Göttingen team leading 18:16 in the first set, but then a series of powerful serves brought the Braunschweig team back into the game, who went on to win the first set 25:20. However, Göttingen retained the upper hand in the second set (25:19), meaning that the final had to be decided in a tie-break. Braunschweig were able to gain a lead relatively early on in the set, which they then held on to for the rest of the set, winning the final set 15:9.
All matches were of a high standard and were characterized by a fair and sporting approach. The teams agreed to play an unscheduled match for fifth place before the semi-finals, which the University of Wuppertal won in three sets against the second Braunschweig team. This allowed all teams to play at least three matches on the day, making the time investment worthwhile, especially for the teams with a long journey. The performance of the team from Bochum, which played the entire tournament without substitutes, deserves special mention. We would like to thank all participating teams for a successful day of competition.

Once upon a time, 6 teams wanted to compete in volleyball. The university championship offered the perfect opportunity - the event that brings together the daring elite of the TU volleyball community once a year. Even the most fervent beach volleyball players, who are usually only found on the sand, dared to take to the hard indoor floor for this event.
After an extensive warm-up phase and a few inspiring introductory words, the matches started surprisingly punctually. All the teams were highly motivated. In the preliminary round, everyone played one set against each other - so there was little room for serious mistakes. Right from the start, it was clear that the duels between the teams were at eye level. The crowds of spectators, who did not want to miss this event despite the great weather outside, were offered exciting matches that were hard-fought right up to the last point. After the preliminary round, it was time for the last places to keep their heads up. Thanks to the organizers' ingenious game system, all teams were still able to reach the final. A wise procedure that proved to be very rewarding for some teams.
However, before the knockout phase began, the players also left the pitches for a while with heavy hearts to enjoy the spring sunshine. During an extensive lunch break in front of the hall, the teams regained their strength and consulted with each other one last time. In the following matches, the teams had to decide two sets for themselves. So they had to summon up all their strength once again. The points became even more hard-fought. Previously unimagined skills were revealed to one or other team, so that 4th and 5th place in the preliminary round were able to turn the table around and meet in the final. Unfortunately, the final was postponed due to a lengthy injury break, which is why two teams were able to stand on the first podium at the end of the tournament day. Congratulations to two teams who shared first place. “I finally got to take part in one of the legendary volleyball events!” said Lena, one of the participants
Overall, the atmosphere at the tournament was at least as good as the standard of play. Even though everyone left the hall after 8 hours with aching limbs, the good mood was reflected in every face.
And if they haven't died, then they are still competing today... probably on an equal footing.

The university championship in hybrid field hockey took place for the first time on Saturday, February 8th. Around a dozen interested people tried their hand at this relatively unknown field hockey sport, which originated here in the region. The games lasted two times 10 minutes. Three outfield players and a goalkeeper faced each other on each side. The games were played on the basketball court. After a few games to familiarize themselves with the rules, the players got down to business. In the final game, the Braunschweig Penguins faced the Orcas, in which the Penguins put in a poor defensive performance in the first half and consequently conceded four goals. The Orcas were convincing here with beautifully played goals.
In the second half, the Penguins pursued a more defensive strategy despite the deficit and tried to fight their way back into the game with individual forays. This was rewarded with a goal, but in the end it was not enough and the Orcas became the deserved first title winners with a 5 to 1 victory.
Both teams included participants from the hybrid hockey course at TU Braunschweig. This takes place on Fridays from 8 to 9:30 p.m. and welcomes new faces. Hybrid field hockey is essentially based on floorball, but is a mixture of different types of field hockey. Hence the name hybrid! ;)
Are you interested in hybrid field hockey now?
A whole night to really let off steam. That's exactly what was possible last Friday on November 29, 2024 in the Beethoven sports hall - a long night of volleyball was the order of the day. Pitching, digging, digging in, as much as the arms and legs could take. From 9 p.m. in the evening until 4 a.m. the next morning, the games were played in mixed teams. Participants could register at the beginning as a duo or as an individual. The question of the evening was then: who could win the most games? Even though the focus was on having fun on and off the court, everyone did their best to win the respective games. After 7 hours, the duo and the individual with the most victories were rewarded with a chocolate advent calendar - coming early and staying late was an advantage.
It was also a successful event apart from the sporting side of things. As always, there was a well-balanced, bakery-heavy buffet with all kinds of homemade specialties. Once again, many thanks to all the amateur bakers. Drinks were also provided in sufficient quantities. New this year, the 8-stamp card was a real bestseller. “Collecting wins was also nice, but it was much cooler to have every stamp motif on my drinks menu at the end,” said one enthusiastic participant.
This event was as round as volleyball itself. Everyone was as happy as the net was high. And the smiles of all participants as they left the hall were as wide as the 52nd parallel on which they played. Take care and see you at the next LaVoNa
Here are the other comments on the night:
Phillip: “I'm actually a beacher and was a bit skeptical at first, but the knotless atmosphere was really special.”
Johanna: “Everyone kept wanting to go back to the field and never actually took a break. I stayed until the end.”
Jannis: “The sumptuous buffet played its part in my stamina”
Laureen and Lena: “Shoot - we only heard all the great stories, next time we'll definitely be there!

The Long Volleyball Night is going into the next round! An evening full of action, intense matches and lots of team spirit - and all this until late into the night! Come along, cheer us on, play along and be there when we fill the night with action and let the ball fly over the net! The event will take place on Friday, November 29, from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. in the Beethovenstraße sports hall. Please remember to bring your sports gear!
On Tuesday, October 29, 2024, the Beethovenstraße sports hall became the venue for a very special sporting event: the first major dodgeball tournament with 160 enthusiastic participants took place here and exceeded all expectations. From the very first minutes, there was a rousing atmosphere in the hall that made the joy of sport and community palpable.
The participants competed against each other in rotating groups on three pitches, so that new, dynamic teams were formed time and time again. Right from the start, it was about far more than just sporting competition - the focus was on reviving the lightness and fun of childhood. The enthusiasm with which everyone took part was downright infectious. The positive feedback from all sides showed that this vision had been fully realized.
As this was the first Völkerball event, the organizers were excited to see how it would go. However, thanks to the excellent preparation and the great commitment of the trainees at the University Sports Center for Sport and Fitness, the tournament ran smoothly and without complications. The teams supported each other with enthusiastic cheers and the passion for the sport grew with every round. The teams played, laughed and cheered late into the night.
Snacks and drinks were also well catered for: participants and spectators were able to choose from a wide selection of drinks and sweet snacks to recharge their batteries for the upcoming rounds.
A special highlight of the day were the impressive pictures captured by our public relations team. The photos captured the best moments of the tournament - from dramatic moves to smiling faces and heartfelt high-fives between the teams. These memories will make the event unforgettable.
All in all, the dodgeball tournament was a great success that all participants and organizers will remember for a long time to come. The positive feedback and the many beaming faces on site speak for themselves. We are already looking forward to hopefully bringing this sporting highlight back next year!
At this year's German University Karate Championships, which took place on Saturday, October 19, 2024, in Jena, three athletes from TU Braunschweig were able to successfully assert themselves. Thanks to intensive preparation and a strong team spirit, they achieved several podium places and proved their skills at national level.
“I am incredibly proud of the athletes. The sweat was worth it,” says coach Yusuf Kolosoglu, who trains the team twice a week in the hall on Beethovenstraße/Rebenring. Under his direction, the karatekas train on Tuesdays from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Fridays from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. , continuously improving their technique and fitness.
These are the results:
Competition class Kata single male (9th-4th Kyu):
1st place: Mike van Dorp Luis
2nd place: Mohammadali Shayegan
Competition class Kumite single male (9th - 4th Kyu):
3rd place: Alexander Wagner

Competition class male kumite team:
2nd place
On the evening of October 9, 2024, the popular ErstiGymNight took place in the CampusGym and the sports hall at Beethovenstraße 16. From 6pm to 10pm, sports enthusiasts and other interested first-year students were able to put themselves to the test and get to know the wide range of sports on offer at the university.
From soccer tennis and strenuous burpees to demanding pull-ups, the evening offered a variety of sporting challenges. The participants visibly enjoyed working out and making new friends in a relaxed atmosphere. The opportunity to win up to two months' free membership of CampusGym by taking part in the various challenges was an additional motivational boost for many.
The TU Braunschweig Lions Racing Team was also on site with an information stand and offered exciting insights into the world of motorsports as well as an entertaining mini-game, which also met with great interest.
The ErstiGymNight will take place again next year - an event that the new students can already look forward to!

This summer, our lacrosse Unisport course represented the TU at the ADH Open in Kaiserslautern and achieved great results. Our men's team came 4th in an exciting tournament against teams from all over Germany.
The games began with a commanding 9-6 victory against the University of Freiburg. This was followed by a hard-fought game against RWTH Aachen, which was narrowly lost 5-7. However, our team was not discouraged by this and secured convincing victories in the next games: 6-4 against the University of Tübingen, 9-5 against TU Dresden and a nerve-wracking 5-4 against the host RPTU Kaiserslautern.
In the last two games, however, our men were narrowly defeated: A 1-3 against the University of Bayreuth in the semi-final and a close 8-9 against Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg unfortunately prevented us from reaching the top 3.
We are already looking forward to participating in the ADH next year with lots of fun, partying and new faces in lacrosse!
The beach volleyball season at TU Braunschweig kicked off on 8th July, 2024 with the men's and women's internal university championships, in which eight men's and five women's teams competed for the title. After exciting matches, Moritz Bonato and Marco Seger won the men's title and Karina Wrede and Jette Duschka won the women's title. Just two days later, the exciting final day of the mixed university league took place, with 32 teams playing for the titles in four cups. This season ended with a decisive final that provided many surprises. All in all, it was a successful season that leaves us wanting more. We look forward to next year!
Last Friday, we organized a tennis tournament for beginners and advanced players - and it was unforgettable!
Group phase in gong style: several rounds of 30 minutes each, new teams after each round. Each player had three games to collect points and progress to the knockout phase.
KO phase: Quarter-final and semi-final matches also lasted 30 minutes, but the final was played in a full set. Pure excitement!
Winners: Michel and Phil won the advanced category, while Gabriela and Alescha triumphed in the beginners' category. Congratulations to them!
The tournament was packed with fun and created many new playing partnerships for the future ????
Last Saturday, the North Campus of the Technical University of Braunschweig was transformed into a vibrant festival site. From 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., the event attracted numerous visitors and was able to inspire them with a diverse program that had something for every taste.
The large stage in the middle of the festival grounds provided a platform for various bands and musicians and invited all visitors to dance and party along. The musical performances created a rousing atmosphere throughout the day.
In addition to the music, there were numerous exhibition stands from various specialist groups at the university. These offered visitors interactive hands-on activities and provided information about current projects and research findings. Culinary delights were also on offer: various stands offered a wide selection of food and drinks that left nothing to be desired.
Of course, we were also on site with our stand and were able to introduce all visitors to the University Sports Center. Anyone who stopped by our stand had the opportunity to try out various games from the SportSpieleVerleih, such as badminton, spikeball and a sporty version of horseshoe throwing.
The CampusGym had provided two challenging challenges: 60 seconds of rope pulling and 60 seconds of jumping jacks. Those who mastered these could look forward to a three-month membership and even got the fourth month for free!
The festival at TU Braunschweig's North Campus was a complete success and offered visitors a successful mix of entertainment, sporting activities and culinary delights. It was a day full of fun and fellowship that will live long in the memory. We hope that the event will take place again next year and that we can welcome you again!
Anyone who is still looking for a dance partner or doesn't know exactly which course is right for them is in the right place at "Kontakttanzen"! You can find out more about the courses from the trainers on site. See you on Sunday, June 30, 2024, from 7:30-9:00 p.m. at the gymnastics hall Rebenring.
As part of the Diversity Days, the Diversity Cup took place on Thursday, May 30 in cooperation with Lebenshilfe Braunschweig. The rainy weather did nothing to dampen the commitment of almost 30 participants - they played on our beach volleyball courts anyway. Winning was only a minor matter, as the main focus was on having fun throughout the entire event.
Our campus run is back again this year, now in its 14th round! In summery weather, around 500 participants ran either the 5 km fun run or the 10 km main run across the university grounds.
Some participants were seen in creative costumes: a group of 31 people in shirts and ties, a group in judo suits and even someone in an inflatable squeaky green dinosaur costume stood out from the crowd. Overall, there was a colorful mix on site, as people from every age group were represented at the run. The participants had one thing in common: They were all highly motivated and had just one goal in mind.
All 500 runners set off from the starting point on the Franz-Liszt-Straße sports field and ran along Beethovenstraße, the Nordcampus site and Ottenroderstraße back to the finish line, where the winner's podium awaited them.
“It was a very successful morning for athletes and spectators alike,” said a delighted Florian Schneider, organizer of the campus run, “many new and familiar faces put in great performances!”
After a good quarter of an hour, the first athletes crossed the finish line. Impressive performances that were honored with trophies and medals at the winners' ceremony.
This year's winners of the campus run are Fabian Hartig (15:42 min), Sebastian Radecker (16:32 min) and Jonas Franzki (16:38 min) in the men's 5 km race and Jessica Lilienthal (20:48 min), Silke Schitteck (21:46 min) and Katja Tüting (22:02 min) in the women's race.
The 10 km winners - Nick Schierding (32:35 min), Nicolas Rohde (34:21 min), Henry Brauns (35:21 min) for the men and Lara Jüschke (47:17 min), Jessica Halfen (49:46 min) and Lena Strube (50:36 min) for the women - impressed with their fabulous times. A highlight was the award ceremony with trophies for the 1st to 3rd place finishers, as well as for the three best teams (Prinzenpark parkrun, Unischwimmen Braunschweig and Eintracht Wintersport) and the largest team with 31 people (Die LG Saufhemden).
“It was another great event all round,” said a delighted Mathias Steiln, Head of the University Sports Center. “The entire team at the University Sports Center has once again put on an excellent event!”
As part of the Diversity Days, we are offering you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of university sports for a week and take advantage of all our offers free of charge from the 27th of May to 2nd of June 2024. For those who are undecided, this is the perfect opportunity to gain an insight into our colorful and diverse program and make it easier to choose a course. Booking a DiversityCard entitles you to take part in the taster week.
In addition, we are organizing a beach volleyball tournament together with Lebenshilfe Braunschweig on Thursday, 30th of May. You don't need your own team, as the teams will be reshuffled after each round. This gives you the opportunity to get together with different players and meet new people in a relaxed and sociable atmosphere. Games are played from 5 to 8 p.m. on our beach volleyball courts. Get ready for sun, sand and beach feeling! Participation is free of charge.
Registration and further information can be found here.
Technically challenging routes, an exciting race and lots of mud! Henry Brauns (center) from TU Braunschweig was also there: "You have to be particularly careful in the places where the mud has already been driven away and the slippery roots appear."
Despite starting from the back row, he took the lead of the field with an impressive performance. In the end, he secured the title of German University Champion in the final. Congratulations to him!
