Belgian Student Sport
In individual competitions, the best performing students in the Flemish championships are selected to participate in the national championships, organised by BSS. In team sports the first 2 teams qualify for the national final 4, where they meet the top teams from the French speaking part of Belgium.
As BSS covers student sport affairs nationwide, they send out delegations to all international events. Amongst others, students are sent to the universiades, the university world championships and the FISU forum.
FISU
Universiade
The Universiade (the University world games), organized every two years, is the sporting Mecca for top level sport students. After the Olympic Games, the Universiade is the biggest sports event worldwide. Participating at both the summer - and winter universiade is possible.
The University World Championships
The Universiade takes place every two years. In the odd year, the University World Championships are organized, especially in those sports that aren't on the official programme of the Universiade.
FISU - forum
This forum takes place every two years with the aim to bring students and professionals together and to try to develop student sport worldwide by discussion and exchange.
