Welcome to Scandinavians at Stanford (SaS)

Scandinavians at Stanford is an association for Stanford students with interest in the Scandinavian countries and Scandinavian culture.

The association organizes cultural events, parties, sports and
anything else that has some connection to the Scandinavian countries and cultures.

We are always open for suggestions for what to do. Please contact the officer responsible for the general area of your suggestion.

Sports

In the past, the Scandinavians at Stanford organized regular soccer practices and games with other student organizations. This year, we could like to organize club sports together with the European Association. If you are interested in playing volleyball, soccer, land hockey or some other team sport with us, please email adelab@stanford.edu. Depending on interest, these could be regular or sparse events, perhaps announced through a separate mailing list that we would create.
