ESSF is the student sports umbrella for Eindhoven. We represent all those using the student sports facilities, as well as the student sports associations in Eindhoven.

We represent our 37 student sport associations (SSAs) and Eindhoven student sports.

• We do this to the Student Sports Centre Eindhoven (SSCE) for sport and centre related business.
• We do this on the level of umbrella associations, where we make sure to advocate for the interests of students.
• We do this to the municipality and the TU/e and Fontys, as well as the rest of the student community.
• We do this on a national level as a member of Studentensport Nederland (SSN).

Board grants.

• We discuss the 3 yearly distribution of the board grants with the TU/e and other umbrellas, and advocate for our 37 SSAs and all the students.
• We distribute the board grants between our SSAs based on the criteria the ESSF establishes together with the SSC.

Introduction week.

• We make sure every SSA is able to promote themselves towards the new students.
• We sit together with the Central Introduction Committee (CIC) for the organisation of the intro.
• We also have contact with the Fontys for the Purple week (Fontys intro).

Next to this:

• We provide a platform for student sports associations (SSAs) to connect and share knowledge.
• We connect students to sports through activities, such as the Van Lint Student Sport Week and Introduction Weeks.
• We provide SSAs with information and subsidies to enable student sports.
