Central University Sports (Zentrale Hochschulsport - ZHS) organizes athletics among the Munich universities and colleges. As an LMU Munich student you are able to take part in the many sports they have to offer for a nominal fee. ZHS issues a program twice a year that’s available at International Affairs and the various other information desks. ZHS also offers its sports catalogue online after it appears in print. All information is in German, so you may want a German-speaking friend to help.
You will need a ZHS identification card with a paid-up participation fee (see ZHS info). The ID is issued at LMU in the foyer at Schellingstrasse 3 at the start of each semester or at the ZHS central office throughout the year in Connollystrasse 32.
There are many other programs outside the university that would welcome you. Toytown Munich, for example, offers a nice listing of expatriate sports and gyms in its wiki section. Also keep an eye out at notice boards around the university for fliers announcing informal groups and leagues.
