Dear Urosians,
The board would like to wish you a (late) merry Christmas again, as well as a happy new year!
With the new 2021 year starting we are all hoping for a change and an amelioration of the difficult situation we all went through in the last year. We think a lot of things were lacking in a lot of our lives lately, so here is a list of new years wishes for everyone:

And yes, you...
With all major running events being cancelled, we miss the unique experience and atmosphere of race day. But we found a solution! During NN Running Day you can experience the atmosphere of the most exciting running events in the Netherlands. Be ready for the countdown, the starting gun and the enthousiastic support of the spectators. While running you will receive various updates such as your...
Unfortunately, we are not allowed to use the track for the upcoming 4 weeks, however we came up with a temporary solution, even with such short notice (which means it will also evolve). Training will take place tomorrow but it will be different than usual. We will try our first “speed dating training”: if you want to participate, you will have to register via a form.
In this form you will be...
Dear reader,
As you may already know, every student association has a number of committees, which are vital for their good functioning. Uros is not an exception, and it is why we need you now! Members can usually decide to join committees during the General Members Assembly (GMA), which already took place last week. However, we do know that not everyone had the chance to attend and, therefore,...
Important!! New corona rules that affect (potential) members!
Dear (potential) new members,
We were very happy to see you all at our practice last Tuesday and are excited for the upcoming weeks! However, there are some new rules that we also received just today. These rules have an impact on our open practices and activities:
You can only attend our practices if you are a member. We do not want to force you into becoming a member, which is why you can now...
Summer break is almost over.. This means that uni starts again and that soon, we will change boards! In the upcoming GMA the current board will pass the baton to the next. This year was different than usual due to the virus. Urosians didn't meet up as often for practices, competitions and activities. This makes it harder for you to vote for the new board, since we didn't got the change to get to...
Both the country and Maastricht University are starting to open up again soon, and Uros will as well.
Are you interested in joining us? We will be active during the INKOM, so anyone who wants to learn about us can join us at our activities, and especially at the sports event!
After the start of the academic year, we will start doing open practices again. These are practices that anyone can join,...

"A touch of gold" Was the theme for the Student Sports Gala this year, but it seems some members in Uros took it too far. While most people chose to wear something gold colored Bob Van Kasteren and Eveline Saalberg took it one step further by deservedly winning the best sportsman and sportswoman respectively! Proving that the future is green and Uros is the best sports association in Maastricht!
Uros had...
Last month Uros had its Smuggle and struggle themed members weekend! The week was filled with exciting events that as the theme might suggest were inspired by the illegal underworld. It would have been criminal to have missed out on such an amazing weekend!
Per tradition we stated the Friday evening with a bier cantus, this was as always, a great evening that was filled with drinking and having...

Friday the 26th of October 2018, the day Uros left to Belgium for the annual members weekend. The commission found an amazing place with enough space to eat, sleep and chill. Of course, they checked if the fridge was the right size for all our ‘healthy’ soda cans we took with us.
Traditionally, the Friday started off with the cantus. After drinking, singing and some sneaky dance moves the...

Overall an amazing weekend for everybody with a lot of fun.
Thanks...

On Tuesday the 5th of September at 19:00, our very first practice of the new academic year will take place. However, we cannot use the track at Jekerdal as usual.

Beste Urosianen,
Het baanseizoen zit er weer aan te komen en daarmee zullen ook de competitiewedstrijden weer van start gaan. Atletiek Maastricht is hiervoor dringend op zoek naar deelnemers.

The start-to-run seminar of Uros will take eight weeks, with the incentive to meet running. Of course this training can be used to get your condition back on track after a period without sporting, or to get some useful tips about running. We will start on the lowest level and the aim is to minimize the level difference with the regular UROS practices, so you can join these at Tuesdays and...

On Sunday, the 13th Maastrichts Mooiste took place and Uros was able to show up with a group of enthusiastic runners starting for the UM team. For some of us it was the first time participating and they were overwhelmed by the great atmosphere. At all parts of the track you were supported by people cheering you on or even a brass band playing on the side walk. This might have also helped to get...
Yesterday, the second UAC took place with the 800 meters and discus throwing on the program. Starting with the 800 meters, it was actually already clear who would win and so he did. Martijn ran just above the 2 minutes. Wim drove very fast from Eindhoven to Maastricht to be on time. But unfortunately, he was not there for the boys 800 meters, so he became one of the girls and won.
Glad we...
Yesterday evening, the first Uros Athletics Competition of 2016 took place. Everyone, who could handle the ice cold temperatures, were motivated to be present at the start of the 1500 meters and shot-put.
After almost 1500 meters jogging in and a long warming-up, the men had the honour to start. Hereafter, 5 women claimed the track and set some amazing performances on this heavy distance ( in...

NSK Ekiden
Op zaterdag 30 mei was het weer zover: het NSK voor de echte loopfanaten, oftewel het NSK Ekiden. Hoewel sommige Urosianen komende week een hele marathon op het programma hebben staan vonden niet alle leden dat even goed idee, maar gelukkig mag je bij een ekiden een marathon met zijn zessen lopen in plaats van alleen. Na de zilveren medaille van het Turbo Team tijdens de editie van...
Donderdag 5 maart was het weer tijd voor de Uros Meerkamp Competitie.
Op het programma stonden de 800 meter en Discuswerpen. Een ding waar ik geen aanleg voor heb en tegen de ander zag ik een beetje op. En dan nog de keuzes.. Hoe hard je met een discus moet gooien is geen lastige keus, zo hard als je kan! Bedenk daarbij wel het volgende: ik ben een hardloper, mijn armen zitten aan mijn romp vast...
Donderdag 12 februari begon het UMC weer en er werd gestart met een fijne 1500m, gevolgd door kogelstoten.
Normaal loop ik afstanden tussen de 5 en de 10km, maar op een atletiekbaan zelf vind ik 100m lang genoeg. Deze afstand zit er dan helaas weer niet bij dit jaar. Al op weg naar de training was ik aan het twijfelen, wel/ niet meedoen? Maar uiteindelijk ben ik toch overgehaald om mee te doen,...
Overmuntheloop
4 Urosheren waren op zondag 1 februari aanwezig in Urmond voor de Overmuntheloop.
Koen Frolichs liep 2 rondes, wat overeenkwam met 6,8 km en de overige 3: Jorn Lempers, Wim van Hameren en Gerben van Hameren liepen de hoofdloop van 3 rondes (10,3 km). Het overwegend vlakke en verharde parcours maakte dat de snelheden hoog lagen. Voor Koen lag de snelheid van de kopgroep in de...
