Who can participate in the university championships?
Spanish University Championships (CEU)
According to the regulations of the Consejo Superior de Deportes (CSD) that regulate the Spanish University Championships (SUC), only undergraduate, master's or doctoral students can participate in these championships, excluding administrative and services staff (PAS) and teaching staff (PDI).
Community of Madrid (CUM)
All athletes from the University Community (students, PAS and PDI) who have passed the selection tests for each sport can participate.
It is governed by the regulations of the Consejo Superior de Deportes and therefore the requirements to participate in the regional championships will be the same as those established in the CEU.
In addition, athletes must meet the technical requirements determined by the university for each sport.
- In the CEU of individual sports, the athlete must have won a medal during his/her participation in the CUM or CADU. For those sports in which no championships have been organised, the Sports Service will evaluate the sporting curriculum of each athlete interested in representing the university in the CEU.
- In the collective sports CEU, the CSD annually designates the criteria for participation in each sport for each Autonomous Community. Normally, the first-placed team in the CUM and CADU participates.
The CEU locations can be consulted on the CSD website.
