Varpa is a traditional Swedish precision sport, similar to boules, where the aim is to throw a flat stone or metal varpa as close to a target stick as possible. The sport, which is best known on Gotland, is played individually or in teams and requires skill, precision and sometimes strength, but also has a strong positive spirit and sense of community.
After a short period of practice, you will have the opportunity to take part in a simple (but prestigious) Student Championship in Varpa, if you wish.
This activity is held in collaboration with Gotlands nation's Gutnian Sports and the Swedish Varpa Federation.
