Karlsruhe WG teams place well at EUG 2024 in Hungary

At the EUG 2024 from July 12 to 24 in Debrecen and Miskolc (Hungary) with a total of 4,513 athletes, the 76 athletes and officials of the WG Karlsruhe showed impressive performances on and off the field and gained many positive experiences and impressions. You can find the results in this article. Unfortunately, in contrast to past European Championships, there were also negative incidents, in particular incidents of nationalism and homophobia, which are not compatible with the values of sport and the values of KIT university sport and which we do not want to leave uncommented.
