Sports at Ramkhamhaeng
Ramkhamhaeng University Sport
Since Thai students are very sportive, it
is not surprising that you find extensive sport opportunities
at Ramkhamhaeng, as well as on the adjacent National Sports
Complex (see next page).
Within Ramkhamhaeng University's main
campus, the Ramkhamhaeng University Sport Office will offer
you permanent as well as temporary activities. From all ball
sports, including the Thai national game Takgraw, to
introduction and training for traditional Muay Thai (Thaiboxing),
another national sport in Thailand, and to dance and gymnastic
- the variety is overwhelming.
Most sport activities are free of charge. If you wish,
however, you may rent a whole football field for a day. That's
on offer as well.
You get more information at http://www.sport.ru.ac.th. Since this Website
unfortunately is only available in Thai language, please ask a
Thai fellow student for support. The sports, however, are
available for students of any language.
