AUR has access to a local basketball court for pick-up games on Tuesdays from 12 to 2pm. The court is conveniently located nearby campus and the activity is open to both men and women. All you need to do is to get a ball at the Student Life Office and start playing!
AUR also fields a competitive team which participates in “Campionato di basket 3v3 delle Universita’ di Roma” and practices at Scuola "Sant'Ivo" (court entrance located at Via Antonio Cesari,4), on Tuesdays from 7 to 8.30pm.
Playing on the Wolves Basketballl team gives students an opportunity to truly mix not just with local Roman students but with the international academic community found here as well; in addition to great fun and camaraderie.
The tournament play offers the Wolves a chance to test their basketball skills against teams from across Rome.
The team is coached by Pierluigi D’Angelo.
Bridgesport - Sports Diplomacy
Make a difference while you're here and play a little ball while you're at it! Bridgesport is a cultural exchange program with the parish youth via basketball. Students can play and teach basketball with the kids, and at the same time learn a bit of Italian while also teaching a bit of English.
BridgeSport members meet on Wednesdays, from 4 to 5:30.
If you have any questions about basketball at AUR, email Stefano Cristalli, Athletics Coordinator, at s.cristalli_ext@aur.edu.
