Sports at Rennes School of Business

At Rennes School of Business, sport plays a central role in the student experience. Much more than just a leisure activity, it is a real vehicle for inclusion, personal achievement and cohesion. With modern facilities, major events and personalised support for high-level athletes, the school is committed to making sport a lever for personal, academic and professional development.

A school that values sport

The Sports Office (BDS) organises sporting activities at Rennes School of Business throughout the year. It offers a wide variety of activities — including football, dance, boxing, volleyball, horse riding, climbing, swimming, fitness, tennis, judo and running — and encourages participation in major student events such as the Team Challenge Ecricome and the BVE’s UNICEF Club.

A real driving force behind student life, the BDS organises weekly training sessions, manages the sports hall, supervises teams competing in championships and sets up major events such as the TIME (Inter-Association Tournament), the Soccer Cup and the Disabled Sports Day, combining sport, conviviality and commitment.

Modern and accessible sports facilities

  • 2 fully equipped weight rooms
  • 2 multipurpose training rooms (dance, yoga, boxing, etc.)
  • 2 basketball courts
  • 4 table tennis tables, including 3 outdoors

4L Trophy coordination

Unique in France, it co-organises the event with Désertours and helps students with their mechanical, logistical and solidarity preparations.
