Reservations and checking in
You need a reservation for every visit to the USC sports program
Make a reservation in the timetable above.
You can make reservations 6 days in advance.
You can make a maximum of 2 reservations in the consecutive 6 days. But, as soon as your first reservation is over, you can make a new one. So you can still work out more than twice a week (if there are free spots)!
You book an entry time, for example from 17.00 to 17.30, during which you can enter.
You can enter half an hour before the start of your entry time, with the exception of the first slot of the day. After your entry time, you can no longer enter. Have you booked an entry time from 17.00 to 17.30, this means you can enter between 16.30 and 17.30.
Are you too late? We’ll register a no show. You can however directly book the next entry time (if there are free spots). If you do so, you can start training immediately, since you can enter half an hour before the start of your entry time.
There is no end time, so you can boulder as long as you like (although, we are going to bed at some point…).
You can choose how to enter USC facilities: with your finger scan or with the My USC – mobile access app. Download the My USC – mobile access app: Android and iOS.
If you use the My USC – mobile access app, you can easily scan the QR code at the entrance. This way (or by using your finger scan) you’re automatically checked in.
Read all reservation and house rules thoroughly before coming to USC! We can only keep things safe together.
Cancelling and no show fee
Booked a class, but can’t make it? Please cancel in advance: our capacity is limited!
Cancel up to one hour before the start of your reservation (but earlier is encouraged!).
Are you not cancelling (on time)? Then you risk a no show fee of €3,-.
Are you not paying the no show fee? In that case you can’t make a reservation/work out for 2 weeks.
Your no show fee doesn’t end up on the big USC company pile. Check in which sports goal we’re investing the no show fee income.
