Des chiffres qui nous font rêver mais qui, aussi, nous interpellent et nous rappellent que nous appartenons à une prestigieuse institution dont nous avons à perpétuer l’héritage et les valeurs. Notre Alma Mater prône l’excellence, le dialogue, la formation intégrale de la personne et toutes ces valeurs se retrouvent au centre de l’activité quotidienne du Service du sport et des sélections sportives. Nos jeunes sportifs se dépassent et brillent sur les scènes locales et internationales, non seulement par leurs résultats mais aussi par leur comportement solidaire et exemplaire sur les terrains et en-dehors. Ils sont ainsi les meilleurs ambassadeurs de l’Université Saint-Joseph et du Liban. L’activité sportive n’est pas en reste à l’interne. De nombreuses compétitions et activités inter-USJ sont ainsi organisées et opposent tout le long de l’année, dans un climat de saine rivalité, les équipes des différents campus et du personnel. Le Centre sportif de l’Université Saint-Joseph soufflera bientôt sa première bougie ; outre les étudiants qui s’y rendent, de nombreux anciens de l’Université s’y sont inscrits : nous espérons que ce croisement des différentes générations de l’Université soit un catalyseur du renforcement tant souhaité des relations entre l’Université et ses anciens.

  • Swing Low Sweet Charity Martyn Wood Launches
    Swing Low Sweet Charity 03 June 2009 Martyn Wood Launches Charity Rugby Tournament Former Wasps, Bath and England rugby player, Martyn Wood, visited Harrogate to launch the Swing Low Sweet Charity tag rugby tournament and Gala Ball which this year boasts a more impressive ‘Who’s Who’ of rugby stars than ever before. Fresh from the British Lions tour to South Africa, Stephen Jones, Lee Mears and Dwayne Peel, will be heading up the dream team at Harrogate Rugby Club on Saturday 25 July. The all star line-up includes Simon Easterby, Guy Easterby, Mark Jones, Regan King, Kees Meeuws, Matthew Tait, Matthew Perry, Geordan Murphy, Ben Woods, David Flatman and Danny Grewcock. Both companies and individuals throughout Yorkshire are being invited to put forward teams, each of which will include one of the 16 star players. The teams and other revellers can go on to celebrate their sporting success at a Gala Ball at The Old Swan in the evening, sitting on a table with their star player. All proceeds from the events will go to the charities Reach and Ataxia UK. “We’re only too aware that this year people are tightening their belts, but for just £400 per team, you have the opportunity of enjoying a once in a lifetime experience, playing rugby with some of your sporting heroes as well as supporting two very worthwhile charities,” commented Ralph Zoing of Marshall Zoing, the company organising the event. “It really is a fantastic day out, whether you’re one of the players or a spectator. We want the whole town to come along and make the most of the fact that we have put together the greatest line-up of rugby players ever to visit Harrogate!” If you would like to support the event by entering a team, providing sponsorship or taking a table at the Gala Ball, please contact Ralph Zoing on (01423) 501401 or email [email protected] .
