What is SYKETTÄ Appro?

SYKETTÄ Appro is a sports appro organized by the Student Union of University of Eastern Finland (ISYY) and Student union of Savonia University of Applied Sciences (SAVOTTA) for students in eastern Finland. SYKETTÄ Appro will be held between 10th of February and 16th of February.

The basic idea of SYKETTÄ Appro is that the participants pick up the appro passport and collect markings from the SYKETTÄ sport events they take part in. Each sport performance is worth of one marking. The participants who return their passport can take part in a lottery to win prizes and get an overall badge equivalent to their performance: for bronze 1–2 markings, for silver 3–4 markings, for gold 5–6 markings and for diamond +7 markings.

The SYKETTÄ Appro participants have all instructed SYKETTÄ sport events available for them, unless otherwise specified. Also ball sports shifts and regular turns are included in SYKETTÄ Appro if there’s an instructor or responsible person. If you use gym you can mark it yourself.

There are also some extra classes included at SYKETTÄ Appro. Enroll for classes via SYKETTÄ sports calendar! Extra classes will be updated on this page before the appro starts.

There is a limited number of appro passports and overall badges in every campus so be quick!
