NTNUI-Bumerang
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NTNUI-Bumerang is a free lending scheme for sports equipment. The purpose is to offer students, and eventually children and young people, the opportunity to try sports you are otherwise prevented from trying. The equipment is lent out through a library system, and returned to the same place by appointment.
NTNUI is Norway’s largest student sports association with over 11,000 members, which is run by and for students on a voluntary basis. Through now over 100 years of history, NTH \/ NTNU students have set sports camaraderie as the most important goal to get together. We know it works. It is expensive to own sports equipment in Norway, which provides an obstacle to achieving this camaraderie. Our goal is for everyone who wants to try a sport, but lacks equipment, to be allowed to do so despite different prerequisites and opportunities. Projects are primarily aimed at students, but we aim to also be able to expand to all children and young people in the Trondheim region who we know have similar needs, as soon as possible. We want people to find each other through sports!

Bumerang was started in 2015 and had its first lend out 25th of November same year. By 1st of January 2018, we have already managed to move to a place in the new part of Moholt Studentby, we have loaned out our equipment several thousand times. By now we have had more than 35 volunteers from over 15 countries joining our volunteer program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our mission is to give the opportunity to socialize through sports, and reduce the barrier to participate by offering sports equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
