Switzerland: General Assembly SHSV

The General Assembly of the Swiss University Sports Federation, founded in 1932, was held at the University of Berne. The delegates of the SHSV/SUSF, received a review on the most successful year in the history of the SUSF.

Swiss students won 14 medals at the Winter Universiade in Harbin and 5 medals at the Summer Universiade in Belgrade. Many Swiss teams also participated at different European Universities Championships. The financial year closed with a loss of 7'500 Swiss francs, which is much better than the deficit of 65'000 Swiss francs which was in the budget. In the budget of 2010 the SUSF plans a profit of 95'000 Swiss francs. Credit Suisse, the main sponsor of the SUSF, prolonged the sponsorship contract for another year and assured the Swiss University Sports Foundation to be also sponsor for 2011.
