uni games National Indigenous Tertiary Education Student Games (NITESG) The countdown has begun for the 2015 National Indigenous Tertiary Education Student Games (NITESG)! This year is a big year for the NITESG, it is the 25th anniversary of the event and it is being held at the University of Newcastle. The University of Newcastle was the first university to hold the games, and it is fitting that it should return for the anniversary. With one sport played each day there are opportunities for USQ students to be involved in Touch, Volleyball, Netball and Basketball. This is the perfect event to show off your Olympic worthy skills and meet other students. There is an action packed social program with each night being capped off with themed events. USQ is subsidising student accommodation for the event and are covering the cost of student registration, so what are you waiting for? USQ Student Josh went along to the NITESG last year in Perth and summed up his experience as… “… a great opportunity to meet fellow students from across Australia, share a year and have a lot of fun.” READ JOSH’S BLOG Read all about Josh’s action packed experience in his blog.
