Thursday, May 30th marked a significant milestone in the partnership between Bocconi Sport Team and Polimi Sport with the second edition of the Polimi vs Bocconi Challenge. Following the success of the first edition held this past February at the Bocconi Sport Center, the regular season winners from each university once again faced off, this time at the Giuriati Arena.
The day kicked off with an electrifying women’s futsal friendly match, which served as the perfect icebreaker. Politecnico clinched victory in a nail-biting penalty shootout after a gripping 3-3 draw in regular time. The excitement continued with the men’s futsal match, where Bocconi emerged victorious, also in a dramatic penalty shootout following another tie. The indoor action heated up with the volleyball final, where Politecnico swept Bocconi in straight sets. The grand finale of the day was the basketball 3x3 showdown, with Politecnico claiming a decisive 31-16 victory.
We would like to express our gratitude to our teams for representing Bocconi Sport with pride, to the staff of Polimi Sport for hosting us and ensuring the success of the event and to everyone who contributed to the success of the Intramural project at Bocconi throughout the year. This inaugural year of the Polimi vs Bocconi Challenge has been a resounding success, bringing together hundreds of students in the spirit of competition and camaraderie. After such a good start, we are eagerly looking forward to elevating the event for the 2024/2025 edition. Stay tuned and see you on court!
