Synergy – 16th Annual
Sports Meet
“Winner is a person who participates, accepts challenges, crosses the
hurdles and comes out in flying colours.”
Games
are creative and mindful expression of the human spirit which comes out through
the creation of activity that has an entertaining, flexible, instructive and
competing element. This year Witty International School, Pawan Baug, Secondary
Section from Grade VI to IGCSE - I witnessed Synergy – 16th Annual
Sports Meet on Saturday, March 3, which was an extravagant show of talent, grit
and enthusiasm by the ever zealous students.
The chief guest
for the day was Mr Shubham Vanmali, Limca book of Records holder as the fastest
Asian swimmer to cross the shark infested Strait of Gibraltar. The arrival of
the chief guest commenced the torch bearing ceremony which galvanised the
sporting arena with vivacity as the sports enthusiasts were getting ready for
the races. Every event needs a beginning and to rejuvenate every sports fanatic
into the sporting field, a beautiful welcome dance was performed by the lovely
dancers who left no stone unturned to showcase their creative side too.
The real test of
endurance, vigour, strength, vitality and agility among the students was
witnessed in the 100m, 200m and 400 m races of the boys and girls. The finale
of the races was 100x4 relay. This race focussed on the teamwork and
coordination and the team which handled pressure well was the ultimate survivor
of the game.
The athletic
events paved way for the breath-taking and stamina challenging – the football
and basketball matches. The final two teams respectively were finalised after
laborious quarter-finals and semi-final tournaments. It was an excitingly nail biting match where
the best teams emerged victorious.
The
most intriguing aspect, embellishing the event, was the splendid field
displays, involving mass student participation, which splattered on the field,
a riot of hues and vibrant colours. To witness the agility, the synchronization
and the prowess of the sportsmen a PEP Rally was displayed. Moving ahead we had
the excited and enthusiastic and powerful dumbbell followers ready to mesmerize
all with their finesse and power showcasing their inner strength and stamina in
the Dumbbell Drill. The spectators were
then presented a beautiful display of nimbleness, harmonization and dexterity
through the Aerobics performance. The finale presentation, Human Pyramid,
showcased a powerhouse of stamina, inner strength and flexibility. The entire
audience cheered and motivated the gymnasts for their dare-devil act.
The
Principal, Mr Bijo Kurian, proudly expressed, “Sports prepares a child to
become a liberal individual who understands the nature of teamwork and apply
the sporting spirit in all aspects of life. Sporting activities play a very
important role in the holistic development of students and inculcating values
like optimism, belief in oneself and the ability to face all the challenges.
We, at Witty International School, aim at providing the best of the sports
facilities for our students so that they are shown another perspective to
nurture their curiosity and channelize their energy in a positive manner.”
