Free crash course: learn how to skate and play bandy!
Uppsala University and Uppsala’s leading bandy club, Sirius Bandy, invite all international students at Uppsala University to come and take part in a four-part beginner’s course in bandy with professional instructors. No previous skills are needed and you can borrow the equipment needed – skates, helmet & club.
Bandy is probably the most Swedish sport you will find, with a special history in Uppsala where the national finals have been played every year from 1991 to 2012. And in March 2018 the final will be back in town, where it belongs!
The course consists of four training sessions with professional instructors who will teach in English. As a grand final we will arrange a real bandy match. Participation is completely free of charge – all you need is a warm training outfit and warm skiing gloves or similar.
The course has 30 places available. (Update 14 December: All the places on the course were taken within two hours. Those who did not get a place will be placed on a reserve list.)
