Renewed Olympic certification for the Salzburg's Sports Centre Renewed Olympic certification for the Salzburg's Sports Centre ================================================================ CIVIS Highlights 14\. März 2025 The University and State Sports Centre Salzburg-Rif has once again been recognised as an "Olympic centre," securing its status for another four years as a premier training facility for elite athletes. The centre provides the best possible conditions for athletes preparing for major international competitions. ![](/storage/files/bild-1-2000x1333.jpg) ©PLUS The *Olympic High-Performance Unit* encompasses five key areas: sports science, medicine, psychology, physiotherapy, and nutritional science. Its collaboration with the Department of Sports Science and Kinesiology at the University of Salzburg is particularly noteworthy, as the University benefits greatly from this partnership: > *The Department of Sports Science and Kinesiology at the University of Salzburg provides solid research results. Data analysis and continuous research in sports science directly benefit athletes,"* noted Barbara Romauer, Vice-Rector for Finance, University of Salzburg. Christian Schiefermüller, sporting director at the centre, highlighted that the *Olympic Centre* label not only grants the right to use this prestigious name, but also ensures comprehensive support from the ÖOC, including funding for scientific projects. Top athletes and their success stories -------------------------------------- The centre hosted 15 athletes from the Jamaican track and field team last year, including five-time world champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, as they prepared for the Paris Olympics. > *Renowned athletes from various summer, winter, and Paralympic disciplines train here, including Tina Pesendorfer, Conny Wibmer, and Mirjam Puchner, who recently won a silver medal at the World Championships. Vincent Kriechmayr utilised the rehabilitation facilities extensively after his knee injury. Mario Seidl is currently making a strong comeback to the top of the world rankings",* says the managing director of the Centre, Sabrina Rohrmoser. In the coming years, the Olympic Centre will continue to focus on promoting Austrian elite athletes while also supporting mass sports. Both elite and recreational athletes will benefit from the excellent conditions at the facilities in Salzburg. **Find out more from the [full story, in German](http://www.plus.ac.at/news/salzburg-rif-bleibt-fuer-weitere-vier-jahre-olympiazentrum).** ### Latest Highlights: [*amU launches 'Safe Place for Science' to welcome American scientists and calls for other European universities to do the same*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/aix-marseille-universite-ready-to-welcome-american-scientists-and-calls-the-same-from-other-european-universities) *[Growing vegetables in space might be possible, SUR study reveals](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/growing-vegetables-in-space-might-be-possible-sur-study-reveals)* *[QS World University Rankings 2025: The University of Bucharest ranks among the Top 500 Universities Worldwide for Sustainable Development](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/qs-world-university-rankings-2025-the-university-of-bucharest-ranks-among-the-top-500-universities-worldwide-for-sustainable-development)* *[French professor Corine Pelluchon awarded the Lucas Prize by the University of Tübingen](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/french-professor-corine-pelluchon-awarded-the-lucas-prize-by-the-university-of-tubingen)* [*Two UNIL Professors awarded with Doctor Honoris Causa by NKUA*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/two-unil-professors-awarded-doctor-honoris-causa-nkua) Related news ------------ - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/euko-at-bild-800x600.jpg?token=8b0e68266375a76c6818dc87522df43f)How young people in Austria use AI CIVIS Highlights 23.
