Sports and University: The University Sports Center

What is C.U.S. Viterbo

University life is not just about studying and spending hours staring at textbooks, and that’s why Unitus is attentive to the well-being of its students, making the C.U.S. VT – University Sports Center of Viterbo one of its strengths.

C.U.S. Viterbo has been active for over 25 years and is a non-profit amateur sports organization that promotes and encourages sports activities among students of the University of Tuscia. C.U.S. manages a sports center with multiple spaces available to students: two indoor courts where you can play tennis, five-a-side football, and basketball, a gym, and outdoor fields for football and soccer. The city’s C.U.S. also offers various courses including tennis, krav maga, classical and modern dance, artistic skating, belly dancing, soccer school, yoga, swimming (in agreement with the FIN swimming pool), and dragon boat at the Capodimonte Sailing Club.

The University Sports Center of Viterbo is located in Via S. Camillo de Lellis, near the Riello Campus.
