SPOCO
By Students To Students
ABOUT US
Spoco association was established as a graduation project with six other fellow students and now is affiliated with Hanze University of Applied Sciences. Initially, the goal was to create a place where all international Sport Studies students could meet (in person and along with a virtual platform). Most importantly, all-year students are welcomed to join the association. To utilize this, volunteers from the 1st and 2nd-year students took part in some decision-making.
Vision
To connect Sport Studies students altogether and cultivate an ongoing relationship among each other.
Mission
Promote personal growth and sports identity-building through knowledge and community.
