Sports play a great role in the life of the university.

There are clubs and teams through which students participate in soccer, volleyball, basketball, chess and various types of martial arts at the university.

Some meetings and events have been conducted in the university chess club with the participation of well-known chess players from Azerbaijan and around the world. Afag Khudaverdiyeva, a famous chess master of Azerbaijan, manages the club.

The “Khazar University” football club formed a team of the strongest football players (presently premier league) in 1998-2004 and earned a certificate for the Intertoto European cup match in 2004.

Some of our students have been participants and winners of local and international competitions as well as European and world championships in various team and individual sports.
