Greeting hall 2! We apologize for the lack of updates over the past week. So for all those of you who have been waiting for the updates brace yourselves for the latest happenings from the 2007/08 Inter-Hall Games!
First, track which took place on the Jan 19th! For those of you that were there, I’m sure one thing everyone will remember was the blazing hot sun! Despite the weather, our runners still gave their best efforts and pitted themselves bravely against all the other halls. In the world of track and field, considering the background of our runner our performance is exceptional. I guess all of us need remember that no matter how hard we train it is impossible for us to match up against experience and seasoned track runner. Our Male 4x100m sprint came in a respectable 3rd position and the girls came in 4th and male’s 4x400m came in 3rd. The rest of the runners failed to make the top 4 positions and we placed an overall 5th position for the tack meet.
The following day was the swim meet, and again, the sun was blazing hot! For those who are curious, the swim meet is conducted as such. The heats are conducted in the morning and following which, the finial in the afternoon after a 45min interval. Our swimmer did us proud qualifying for all the events and placing an overall 2nd in the swim meet. Our guys 4x50m freestyle come in 2nd; breaststroke guys 1st, female breaststroke 1st and the medley 1st. Impressive results! Well done swim team! For those who are questioning, with such good results why is it we’re still 2nd? Well our female freestyle was disqualified - a controversial decision. Well what ever the case we applaud our team’s exceptional performance.
For tennis which was held on the 22nd, we defeated Hall 4 to move into the finals! Congratulations! We won 4-1. Keep rooting for our players and do come and show your support for them during the finals! We are hopeful and confident that our hall will put up a fantastic show and strive to be champs of the court.
Next, basketball! In my opinion, basketball has always been highly contested with many hall fielding exceptionally skilled teams. Our hall has always had been a formable force to recon with and though we were defeated, we put up a match that’s worth a special mention. We faced Hall 10 this semi-final matchup, however, due to a miscommunication our players were late and unable to do a proper warm-up. Despite this set back we kept Hall 10 at bay keeping the score was head to head all the way till the finial moments of the match. It was only at the finial moments that Hall 10 managed to score a 3 pointer and win a turn over to clinch victory. The final score was 53-58 in Hall 10’s favor.
Now for Volleyball. Our girls team won Hall 12 with a score of 3-0 and out hall guys lost Hall 6 with a score of 4-1. Before bidding farewell to the guys team, we would like to commend them on their great performance and we’re confident they’ll move from strength to strength and be back with a vengeance during the next IHG. Do brace yourselves and come support the girls team in their final match as they seek to bring glory to the hall.
Finally for squash and badminton we are through to the finals! So do come and support the next few match! Most of the games in this period will be the finals so do come down and support!
