On May 16 and 17, 2026, the adh Trophy boxing tournament took place in Jena—a major highlight in collegiate boxing. The team from TU Braunschweig was also in attendance and competed in two weight classes. Our boxers impressed with strong performances, exciting bouts, and tremendous dedication.

In the 80 kg weight class, Max Mavrin put on a strong, competitive performance. In an intense and evenly matched bout, Mavrin and his opponent gave each other no quarter. Throughout all the rounds, an exciting, high-level duel unfolded that was ultimately decided by the judges’ decision. In the end, Mavrin was narrowly defeated by a 2-1 judges’ decision, but his performance was thoroughly impressive.

In the 75 kg weight class, our second athlete, Christopher Generotzky, was also in excellent form. In his first bout, the quarterfinal, he dominated from the start and confidently controlled all three rounds. Consequently, Generotzky won unanimously with a 3-0 judges’ decision. Unfortunately, however, he injured his knee in the final round and was therefore unable to compete in the final. This made the elimination all the more frustrating, as Generotzky had delivered an outstanding performance throughout the tournament up to that point.

Overall, we look back on the 2026 adh Trophy with great satisfaction. Our boxers put in strong performances and gained valuable experience. Now we’re already looking forward to the 2027 adh Trophy with renewed motivation!

DHM Judo: Unexpected bronze in Passau

The German University Championships in judo took place on St. Nicholas weekend. Nine judokas from TU Braunschweig made the long journey to Passau for the event. In a competition team (WG) together with two students from Ostfalia, the team put in a strong performance and ultimately secured the bronze adh winner's pin – despite being understaffed.

The WG Braunschweig won the opening match against the team from the University of Halle by a clear 4:2. The team then faced the eventual winners from the University of Cologne and lost 1:5. At that point, no one could have guessed that this would be their only defeat of the day. In the repechage round against WG Würzburg, Braunschweig once again delivered exciting fights. After a 3:3 tie, a weight class was drawn for the deciding fight, which Philipp (-73 kg) won confidently. In the following match, the judokas had to face WG Münster. Here, too, the score was 3:3 after the six regular fights, which meant another deciding fight. Luck was again on Philipp's side, who scored the decisive point. With a 4:3 victory, WG Braunschweig advanced to the small final – the fight for the bronze medal.

In the last match of the day against WG Munich, Braunschweig had to concede two points without a fight and started with a 0:2 deficit. The first point went to the opponents, the second to WG Braunschweig. Then Munich again, Braunschweig, and Munich once more. In the last regular bout, the Munich athlete initially took the lead before Cornelius turned the fight around and secured a surprising 3:3 draw. For the final fight, the weight category +90 kg was drawn this time, and Cornelius managed to end the fight after only 28 seconds with an ippon score, securing WG the hard-fought 3rd place in a strong field of 18 teams.

The team spirit displayed by the team deserves special mention. Everyone was cheered on loudly and celebrated, which certainly contributed to the team's success. The team would like to thank Tom for his excellent coaching and Phil for organizing the event.

Our newcomers Elia and Felix also found a team for the team competitions thanks to the exchange platform. The Team Newcomers Cup offers all judoka with low belt grades a valuable opportunity to gain competition experience. The day before, seven students from the Technical University of Braunschweig had competed in the individual tournament. Lilian (-48 kg) took 4th place and Cornelius (+100 kg) took 5th place.

All in all, the 2025 DHM was a very successful event for TU Braunschweig at the end of the year – and the long journey was more than worth it.

Generate power with your cardio training! ⚡

Since yesterday, the TU Braunschweig's CampusGym has been equipped with new innovative cardio machines that not only take your training to the next level, but also generate electricity in the process. With a ceremony and the participation of about 50 employees of the TU, the equipment was inaugurated by our President Prof. Dr. Angela Ittel and the Head of the University Sports Center Mathias Steiln. NDR television and RTL Nord were also on site and reported on our new equipment.
