A huge opportunity for athletes
University hockey in Poland is gaining popularity, and Oświęcim is becoming one of the key centers for this initiative. An article published on the Nasze Miasto website highlights that academic hockey offers a unique opportunity for young athletes to combine their passion for hockey with intellectual and educational development. As UHT Sabers, we proudly support this idea, which we see as holding great potential not only for hockey but also for shaping a new generation of athlete-scholars.
The future on ice and beyond
For us, the UHT Sabers team, academic hockey means more than just sport. It is a chance to build the future of young people by offering them not only professional training but also an opportunity for intellectual growth. Oświęcim has long been associated with top-level hockey, and now, thanks to initiatives like this, it is also becoming a hub for academic development in this discipline. Thanks to collaboration with local universities, academic sports programs open doors to professional careers, not only on the ice but also beyond it. This is an ideal solution for young hockey players who want to secure their future by gaining both athletic and academic experience. For many of them, this could also be a stepping stone toward an international career.
Join us today!
As a team, we are proud of our role in this initiative. We encourage young players to join us and take advantage of these unique opportunities that can open both educational and athletic pathways for them. We believe that the combination of these two worlds will benefit not only individual players but also the entire Polish hockey scene.
Oświęcim has tremendous potential, and we, as the Sabers, are ready to fully harness it. Together, we are creating a future in which academic hockey becomes the standard, not the exception. We invite everyone interested to the ice rink – both those who want to try their hand at hockey and those who wish to develop intellectually.
