THE BATAVIERENRACE
The Batavierenrace is an annual student relay race starting in Nijmegen and finishing in Enschede. The route is divided into 25 stages, of which 17 are men’s and 8 are women’s stages. The length of these stages varies from 2.9 to 11.2 km, with the entire route of the Batavierenrace covering 175 km.
In total, 350 teams can participate in the Batavierenrace. With 25 participants per team, the number of participants is around 8.500 per year. With this number of participants, the Batavierenrace is mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records with ‘most participants in a relay race’! The race starts at midnight on the 28th of April 2012 at Nijmegen. Almost 18 hours later, the finish will be in Enschede at the campus of the University of Twente. After the race there is the possibility to celebrate your personal victory at Europe’s biggest student party; the Batavierenparty!
The Batavierenparty
The Batavierenparty has also acquired a special place in the hearts of Dutch students. Since 1977, a big party is organized after the Batavierenrace. The last few years it even claimed the title ‘Europe’s biggest student party’ with over 12,000 visitors! It is a great way to relax after more than a day of intensive sports. The Batavierenparty is held on the campus of the University of Twente. There are eight different stages, with all kinds of different acts.
International Program
For the international teams we will organize a special program with an international day and party. This program gives international teams the opportunity to see the beautiful city of Nijmegen and to meet other international students. This ensures you to see a bit of the Netherlands and make lots of new friends, instead of focusing entirely on the race.
Participate and registration
To participate in the Batavierenrace, you have to form a team of 25 students. Each team that participates in the Batavierenrace has to have a team captain. If you want to be a part of this fantastic event, sign up your own team at www.batavierenrace.com. The registration period is from October 1st until the 28th of November.
