Students Sports Association of Montenegro


The Students sport Association of Montenegro have legal status as the National Sports Federation in charge for whole students sports in Montenegro, a fully member of the Montenegrin Olympic Committee and also as a member of the European and World Universities Sports Associations (EUSA,FISU).
Although it has been founded in 1979, the Students Sport Association of Montenegro has reached the height of success only after the Montenegrin independence declaration and the UN acknowledgement, main condition for being admitted by EUSA (2006) and FISU (2007). In August 2007,our waterpolo players won the first place at the Universiade held in Bangkok, Thailand. This has been the first and the really meaningful result in team sports from the country of Montenegro.
Since 2007, we took part in all Universiade and EUSA Games as well as in 13 WUC and 17 EUC.
We are especially proud that we as new and small NUSA have organized several European or World Championships:

Really meaningful part of our labor are the national competitions.

There are also leagues in team sports - futsal, basketball, volleyball, handball, basketball 3x3 and mini football. Almost 8% of all students population, 1.700 students, participate in more than 8 national championships and in 4 leagues with more than 200 matches.
Among, wide range of our activities, there are also scientific meetings, sports and recreational activities on the snow, the election of the best student-athlete, non-competitive motivational sports activities (hiking, biking, archery, golf, kayaking, dance, fitness, trainings in nature...), etc.
The National University Championships not only bring together a great number of competitors, but also raise interest in those who are not competing but like to keep up to date with our events. Our website www.unisport.me and the Facebook and Instagram page Studentski sportski savez are visited by a great number of competitors who collect information about scores, announcement of competitions...
We are proud to say that students taking part in our championships don't have to pay it. The SSAM covers all the fees, and for what concerns the leagues, we also pay the sports equipment and travel fees.
