Worte des Präsidenten
Der amtierende Präsident der FISU, Leonz Eder, möchte alle Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer herzlichst zur Innsbruck 2022 World University Championship Sport Climbing begrüßen. Nach einer langen Zeit in der Universitätssport kaum möglich war, können Veranstaltungen wie diese endlich wieder stattfinden. Der Präsident wünscht allen Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmern viel Erfolg und wertvolle Erfahrungen, die ein Leben lang bestehen:
Dear friends,
I am very happy to welcome you to Innsbruck, for the 2022 FISU World University Championship Sport Climbing.
For nearly two years, international university sport was almost not possible. What an extraordinary period we have all been through. FISU’s thoughts are first and foremost with those who have lost loved ones, and with those who have experienced personal suffering. Because of this, the resumption of competitions has been bittersweet.
As societies and economies rebuild, however, we are reminded of the need to prioritise sport and healthy social exchange. FISU firmly believes that university athletes are the role models and future leaders the world needs, now more than ever.
Over the next four days, you will compete alongside some of the best student athletes in the world. The FISU World University Championships demand skill, athleticism and single-minded determination to do your best. But beyond the competition, FISU urges you all to take full advantage of this moment. May you return home with memories that will last a lifetime and perhaps even some new friends from faraway places.
By taking part in the FISU World University Championship Sport Climbing, you are becoming part of a historic movement that has been growing for more than 70 years. I encourage you to consider how you may best write your own page in this history.
None of FISU’s events would be possible, meanwhile, without the gracious generosity of our hosts. I would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the National University Sports Federation of Austria and the organisers for their dedication. I am confident you will do the same.
FISU is also grateful for the ongoing support of the International Sports Federations. Together, we aim to provide the highest level of technical excellence, both on and off the field of play. We remain convinced that the best student athletes deserve nothing less.
I am confident that the 2022 FISU World University Championship Sport Climbing in Innsbruck will provide you every opportunity to shine, and I wish you the best of luck!
Leonz Eder
FISU Acting President
