Throwback to my tenure as Sports Secretary, reminiscing our inaugural sports event - a groundbreaking football tournament in collaboration with JAGSOM (PEP)Sports Committee. Here's a detailed look at how it all unfolded:
1. Unique Collaboration: This marked the first-ever collaboration of all three IFIM institutions for a sports event, setting a precedent for future collaborations.
2. Hostel Premises Venue:The tournament took place within the premises of our hostel, creating a vibrant atmosphere and fostering a sense of community among participants.
3. Hotel Football League: Despite facing challenges with college sanctions, the event was creatively dubbed as the 'Hotel Football League,' adding a unique twist to its narrative.
4. Auctions and Player Assignments:
- Captains were appointed to oversee player auctions and management, fostering leadership skills among participants.
- Each captain was allocated a budget of ₹5000 for bidding on players, with bidding starting at ₹50.
- Team managers, captains, and a pep member collaborated to track the transactions, ensuring transparency and fair play.
- To maintain team balance, rules were set requiring teams to have a minimum of 8 players, with provisions for acquiring players from the remaining slots if necessary.
5. Team Formation and Fixture Planning: Following the auctions, teams were formed, and fixtures were meticulously planned for the 7-a-side tournament, ensuring a competitive and exciting sporting experience for all involved.
6. Gratitude: The success of the event wouldn't have been possible without the unwavering support and cooperation of the Hostel Committee and JAGSOM Sports Committee, whose dedication and teamwork were instrumental in making the 'Hotel Football League' a memorable and successful event.
Reflecting on these moments fills me with gratitude for the camaraderie and teamwork that made it all possible. Here's to more memorable sporting events and collaborations in the future!
