Sports events in the inter-university campus: integration, networking, and community development

Aim. The study examines the role of sports events in fostering integration, networking, and community development within the inter-university campus and identifies key organizational mechanisms to enhance related outcomes. Materials and methods. This research employs a mixed-method approach incorporating legal systems analysis, structural-functional examination, comparative legal methodology, and synthesis of best practices. Results. Findings indicate that successful implementation of the proposed measures can facilitate institutional integration, adoption of network collaboration models, and development of university communities through the planning and execution of inter-university campus sports events. Conclusion. Adequate coordination of these initiatives by member institutions of the academic consortium reveals the platform’s full potential, where synergistic outcomes exceed the mere sum of individual contributions.
