The International University Sports Federation (FISU) was "generally" satisfied after inspecting accommodation facilities in the Italian city of Turin for the 2025 Winter World University Games.

FISU Games winter senior event manager Jiho Kim and coordinator Fiona Testuz led the delegation which travelled to Turin.

Kim reported on their findings.

"Generally speaking, we are satisfied with our visit," he said.

"All the accommodation for the ice sports meet our requirements, in terms of a proper number of bedrooms, meeting rooms and dining halls.

"We still need to work on few details, but we are happy about the current situation.

"There is a great legacy left by the Olympic Games in 2006, followed by the Winter Universiade in 2007.

"Our plan is to come back in September to visit the snow sport facilities in Bardonecchia, Pragelato and the surroundings to accommodate athletes of Alpine skiing, snowboard, freestyle skiing, biathlon and cross-country."
