Welcome to the DICA Olympic Games!

Welcome to the DICA Olympic Games! 

Each sport has its own rules, so check the table on the next page to choose wisely.

The event is open to PhD students, research fellows, researchers, professors and technical-administrative staff. 

Some sports require a Basic subscription, which costs €25. The Basic subscription for PoliMi employees allows you to obtain the Silver subscription for free.

The two subscriptions combined include the following:

  • Medical examination for the certificate for non-competitive sports activities
  • Insurance
  • Free rental of padel rackets
  • Access to the changing rooms, the athletics track, the callisthenics area, and the 3 vs 3 basketball court

Some sports require a certificate for non-competitive sports activities: you can use the one you may have or, with the Basic subscription, request a free medical examination at the Giuriati Sports Centre (waiting time between 2 and 4 weeks).

Some tournaments are also open to employees of the entire Politecnico di Milano or the entire population! In this case, an internal ranking will be drawn up based on the positioning of our teams.
