In the academic year 2013-2014 we witnessed the most success- ful Winter Universiade ever from home aspect, as our short-track competitors grabbed one gold, silver and bronze medal each. At the 11 World University Championships (WUC) held in 2014 altog- ether 29 medals went to Hungarian athletes, out of them 13 were gold. The rowers of Széchenyi István University wrote sport history, when they collected the first gold medal for our country at the P ro f European Universities Games in Rotterdam. And thanks to the sport d r Á d diplomacy the President of the International University Sports Fede- á m ration held negotiations in Hungary on the possible organisation of the Kis s, P res Universiade and Olympic Games, and specific consultations are running ident since on eventually bidding for the FISU Forum in 2018. The 11th World University Wrestling Championships held in Pécs attended by 280 univers- ity and college wrestlers from 25 nations earned recognition on international scene as well and brought nice Hungarian successes. The Hungarian College and University Cham- pionships (HCUC) in 38 sports were attended by 36 higher educational establishments with more than 3,000 university and college students representing 96 percent of the students. The SportPoint Program (SPP) held in conjunction with HUSF and the National Student Union of Hungary (NSUH) reached this year already more than twelve thousand students, which for the first time ever promoted sporting activity in the camps of first-year students. Merely within a year the number of the SPP leisure sport events doubled to half a thousand. As a result of the development there are twenty-four sport offices on higher educational level in operation today in the country. The cooperation among the spectacular team sports can be taken as a role model. In basketball the only championship-system HCUC ran with a record number of participants with corporate income tax allowance subsidy of almost forty million HUF, while the water- polo players attracted about one thousand spectators already for the second time. The development of the local institutional football championships was completed with Tele- kom – Hungarian Football Federation support of eleven million HUF. Thanks to the work of the HUSF Secretariat the accomplishment of the programmes in the Alfréd Hajós Plan is successfully running – with the assistance of our partners. It is not easy to list those who have engaged in the issue of university sport: the establishments of higher education and our members, national sport federations and their sport experts, the Ministry of Human Capacities and the Hungarian Olympic Committee, NSUH, Hungarian Basketball Federation, Hungarian Water Polo Federation, Telekom, TandT Sport Llc, Adi- das Budapest Llc, Bay Zoltán Applied Research Community Non Profit Llc and Budapest Business School. It is hoped next year we jointly manage with renewed force to actively involve even more university and college students in the sport life of the institutes of higher education. We believe with healthier and sportier intellectuals Hungary can be turned happier and stronger. „There is no quality higher education Prof dr Ádám Kiss without quality sports” President Facts and Plans 2014/15 3 Awarded university athletes in 2014 Winter Universiade 2013 Men’s Short Track Speed Skating Relay – Bence Béres (SE), Csaba Burján (ELTE), Viktor Knoch (BKF) and Bence Oláh (SE) – gold medal Women’s Short Track Speed Skating Relay – Bernadett Heidum (BKF), Andrea Keszler (ÓE), Zsófia Lilla Kónya (BGF) and Szandra Lajtos (SZTE) – bronze medal Short Track (1500 m) – Bernadett Heidum (BKF) – silver medal World University Triathlon World University Karate Championship Championship Zsófia Kovács (ELTE) Tadissi Yves Martial (NKE) – gold medal – gold medal Z s ó f András Virág (ÓE) – bronze medal ia K o v á l c s a (E d World University Taekwondo Championship LTE e ) – g m o al ld med ld Edina Kotsis (EKF) – bronze medal o g – ) E World University Canoe Sprint Championship K N l ( K2 200 m – Anita Hagymási (SE), Réka Hagymási (SE) – silver medal tia ar M K4 200 m – Anita Hagymási (SE), Alexandra Horváth (SZTE), ves Tadissi Y Fanni Simán (ELTE), Ágnes Viktória Szabó (BCE) – silver medal K4 500 m – Alexandra Horváth (SZTE), Fanni Simán (ELTE), Ágnes Viktória Szabó (BCE), Anita Hagymási (SE) - silver medal K2 500 m – Anita Hagymási (SE), Réka Hagymási (SE), - bronze medal K4 200 m – Kristóf Tamás Bán (SZTE), Gábor Bogár (SZIE), László Kovács (SZTE), Máté Szomolányi (SE) – bronze medal World University Rowing Championship Men’s double coxless: Adrián Juhász (SZE) and Béla Simon (NYME) – gold medal Men’s Single Scull: Bendegúz Pétervári-Molnár (BCE)– gold medal Men’s Lightweigth Single Scull: Dániel Matyasovszki (SZTE) - silver medal A d r Men’s Lightweight Double Scull: iá E) n M Ju Y Be E) Gábor Csepregi (NKE) and Péter h (N n C ász on de (B (SZ Sim gú nár Galambos (ÓE) – silver medal E) and Béla z Pétervári-Mol 4 Hungarian University Sports Federation World University Wrestling Championships - Pécs Bark mese a (SE ÁVF) – E ) – th ( go go me ld m ld Né e m n d e á a d Iv l a l abó (BKF) zló Sz – go Lás ld m ed al K r is z t iá n Jä g er (B ME ) – gold medal B Emese Barka (SE) – gold medal á li n l Krisztián Jäger (BME) – gold medal t a Lá d – gold medal m e Bálint Lám (ÓE) (Ó m E d ) – g ol Tamás Lőrincz (SE) – gold medal old medal g Tam E) – Iván Németh (ÁVF) – gold medal ás Lőrincz (S László Szabó (BKF) – gold medal Richárd Csercsics (SE) – bronze medal Zsombor Gulyás (SE) – bronze medal World University Weightlifting Gábor Madarasi (EKF) – bronze medal Championships Mihály Szabó (Edutus) – bronze medal Péter Nagy (Edutus) – gold medal - snatch World University Cycling Championship Péter Nagy (Edutus) – Barbara Benkó (SE) – silver medal - MTB XCO time trial gold medal - clean Barbara Benkó (SE) – silver medal - MTB XCO road race and jerk World University Shooting Sports Championship Péter Nagy (Edutus) – 25 m sport pistol team – Sára Babicz (ELTE), Nikoletta gold medal - total Mihalkó (KRE) and Adrienn Nemes (SE) – silver medal European Universities Games Men’s double coxless: Adrián Juhász (SZE) and Béla Simon (NYME) - gold medal University eight ’regatta’ (SZE) crew: Attila Bakaity, Péter Bártfai, Márk Bíró, Ferenc Attila Horváth, Adrián Juhász, Péter Lacsik, Márk Géza Lovass, Norbert Porubszky, Béla Simon - gold medal Women’s Lightweight single scull: Virág Dohovics (SZE) – silver medal Men’s Lightweight double scull: Gergely Simon (BME) and Bence Tamás (BME) – silver medal University gold medallists at World Championships 2014 Canoe Sprint World Championships – Olympic event: K–4 500 m: Gabriella Szabó (Edutus), Anna Kárász (SZTE), Ninetta Vad (NYME) K–2 500 m: Gabriella Szabó (Edutus) Non - Olympic event: K-2 200 m: Anna Kárász (SZTE), Ninetta Vad (NYME) - gold medal K-1 4 x 200 m: Dávid Hérics (SE) - gold medal C–2 500 m: Zsanett Lakatos (NYME), Kincső Takács (NYME) - gold medal Winners and special awardees of HCUC point system Special Awardees: 1.
