"Living at the Sportstar College is a great way to combine school and sports. You live with other young athletes who wants to train at a high level while studying. The setup is great. You’re in safe surroundings with adult supervision but still you’re very independent and free to decide how to spend your time outside school and training. It’s a super active environment where they urge you to explore different kinds of activities outside of your own sport."

Adam Sikora, Sportstar College
