The University of Nova Gorica devotes special attention to sports. One of the more important steps towards better collaboration between science and sports is also last year’s signing of the agreement with the Female handball club Mlinotest Ajdovščina.

The University of Nova Gorica and ŽRK Mlinotest Ajdovščina

At the end of the season, the ŽRK Mlinotest Ajdovščina took 8th place in the 1. A State handball league for women. After 26 rounds of matches, the Mlinotest Ajdovščina team won thirteen times, played two draw, and lost eleven times.

The youth team from Ajdovščina achieved a huge success by taking the third place in the national competition. They played sixteen matches, they won eleven times and lost only five times. Also, the youth handball team prides on having the best shooter in the state youth league and her name is Špela Ferfolja. In sixteen matches, she scored 169 times, which means more than 10 goals per game.

The collaboration between the two institutions is done in the form of mutual promotion, since members of the Mlinotest Ajdovščina handball team became promoters of the University of Nova Gorica. Both parties involved wish the collaboration to continue, grow and spread to other areas as well.

As the University is well aware of the strives that the sportsmen and sportswomen have to go through in order to achieve their goals and at the same time fulfill their student obligations, we prepared favorable conditions of study for the students who are actively engaged in sports. The status of a sportsman or sportswoman is given to all active, registered sportspeople with visible results at competitions on the national and international level.

We warmly congratulate the Mlinotest Ajdovščina handball team!
