By all accounts, this place is set to become the new vibrant heart of the campus. A brief explanation from the three key figures behind the project.&nbsp; <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sports infrastructure for physiotherapy students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Professor Nick Gebruers, department chair,<a> <\/a>Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy<\/strong>: \u2018I\u2019m very happy with this result. Together with the two residential blocks and the square, it now makes for a welcoming environment. It will undoubtedly be a vibrant place all year round. After all, except for a few weeks of closure,<strong>&nbsp;the food hall and sports facilities will be open continuously. <\/strong>This is also nice for the 1,500 staff members who continue to work here through the class-free periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The seeds of this project were sown back in 2019. Professor Eric van Breda of Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy, now retired, drew up a master plan for Campus Drie Eiken together with the board of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. Their main priorities were more restaurants, housing and sports facilities. The university launched a competition, from which property developer Life emerged as the winner.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Training hall of 900 square metres<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;The new sports facilities are a major step forward, especially for <strong>physiotherapy students<\/strong>. After all, exercise and sport play a central role in their study programme.<strong> Students need to experience first-hand what physical activity means for healthy individuals as well as for patients and people undergoing rehabilitation.<\/strong> Previously, they had to travel to Campus Middelheim for those classes, which made timetabling a real puzzle. It was common for theory and practice to be taught at different locations. That is now a thing of the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3964\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-683x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3964\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-1024x1536.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-1365x2048.png 1365w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-12-scaled.png 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3963\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-683x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3963\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-1024x1536.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-1365x2048.png 1365w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-11-scaled.png 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3965\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-683x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3965\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-1024x1536.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-1365x2048.png 1365w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-13-scaled.png 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:17px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the <strong>two sports halls<\/strong>, which our students will make frequent use of, there is also a training hall. This <strong>athletic training hall,<\/strong> as it\u2019s officially labelled, is unique in Flanders. Not only because of its size \u2013 it covers 900 square metres \u2013 but also because it\u2019s <strong>fully equipped with the most advanced equipment.<\/strong> This enables students to develop their skills in strength and movement therapy. Treatment and laboratory facilities have also been included, creating opportunities for scientific projects. After all, many colleagues are conducting research into the impact of training programmes on patient recovery.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Prof. Nick Gebruers: &#8216;The training hall is unique in Flanders not only because it is about 900 square meters in size, but also because it is fully equipped with advanced equipment.&#8217;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Full of life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Catherine Ongenae, domain coordinator of nutrition and student affairs<\/strong>: \u2018With this new complex, our aim is to create<strong> a campus where student life can truly flourish<\/strong>. The food hall plays a key role in this. Alongside komida, we sought out <strong>external chains<\/strong> known for quality food that appeals to students and for their evening opening hours<a>. <\/a><strong>This led us to Bavet, known for its pasta dishes, and Oats Day Long, whose branch here has been renamed Caf\u00e9 Unief<\/strong>. The latter serves not only drinks but also breakfast, lunch and snacks, with a strong focus on a healthy diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to&nbsp;<strong>komida<\/strong>, we\u2019re sticking to the familiar concept. <strong>There, only lunch is served, with a gentle nudge towards healthier choices<\/strong>. In this way, we also cater to our staff, many of whom value a healthy lifestyle. Incidentally, we\u2019ll soon start serving balanced meals specifically designed for after sporting activities. These will be prepared by our new dietitian, who specialises in sports nutrition. Another convenience of the food hall is that <strong>orders can be placed remotely<\/strong>. Plus, there will be a digital ordering kiosk and vending machines with takeaway meals.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"3976\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-17-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3976\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"3977\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-7-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3977\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3962\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-683x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3962\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-683x1024.png 683w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-200x300.png 200w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-768x1152.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-1024x1536.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-1365x2048.png 1365w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/pintra-en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gebouw-P-10-scaled.png 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:17px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sportsticker also for staff<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;When it comes to sport, we offer a wide range of activities, whether individually or in groups \u2013<strong> from yoga and Pilates to basketball and badminton.<\/strong> We also hope to <strong>encourage our staff to take part<\/strong>: just like students, they can benefit from the <strong>very affordable Sportsticker scheme<\/strong>.

With this project \u2013 in line with trends at international universities \u2013 we\u2019ve truly been able to deliver on that. <strong>Staff and students alike can come here to exercise, eat or drink, work or study. The food hall is open on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 10.30 p.m., and at weekends from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.<\/strong> But even on Saturday and Sunday afternoons the place will not be deserted, as people will still be coming in to exercise \u2013 including local sports clubs. We\u2019ve already made arrangements with the City of Antwerp, and some clubs will be training here two to three times a week. So this is a real advantage, given the shortage of sports halls in the Antwerp area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the campus already has a komida with an extensive range, we opted for a somewhat more limited menu at this location. <strong>The focus is on popular dishes<\/strong> that customers can in some cases put together themselves \u2013 for example, a tasty salad with toppings of their choice.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Luc De Backer: &#8216;A project like this doesn\u2019t come along every year.
