Sports: General Info

How to use the sports facilities

There are several Sports Complexes that belong to the Complutense University spread around its campuses. They are specified in the link “Sports Facilities” in this blog. The ones placed in Moncloa Campus are more complete.

As a student from Complutense you can use these facilities with a special price. We will give you an student identity card to access these facilites. Each complex manages and controles the access to its own facilities, you do not need to go to a central office.


Sports Clubs

Furthermore, there are sports activities organized by students. Every faculty of Complutense has their own Sports Club (Club Deportivo). You will have the chance through these clubs to get in contact with some students from Spain or other european countries as well as you play your one sport in a team. These teams formed through each faculty’s club play with each other in an internal competition.

The most popular and common sports in these clubs are usually basketball, football (soccer), futsal or indoor soccer and rugby. Sometimes the club will also have a handball team, voleyball, etc. It goes without saying that there are both female and male teams.

Since the clubs are run by students, their schedule is flexible, so maybe you will have trouble to find someone in their office everytime you go. Anyhow, it is fine if you just leave a note with your name, email adress, cell phone and sport you are interested in and they will contact you.


The Sports Club of the Faculty of Political Science and Sociology is located in the 2nd floor corridor 26. 


Sports schools or courses

The Complutense University gives also the chance to join a two semester sports school. There is a wide range of choices with a very affordable prices. This is also a good chance to meet other students at the same time that you do something fun. There is also a diving course!!!

Most of the courses take place in the Southern Sports Complex because it is the most complete, but in Somosaguas you can practice a course in Pilates or Fitness.
