During the tournament, the referee’s judgments were very transparent and decisive. Ishvar Sir, Ritesh Sir, Jignesh Sir and Bankim Sir were the referees for the tournament. Devang Sir, Tejas Sir and Hemant Sir did their job of scoring fairly with full dedication and zeal.

At last, in the closing ceremony of the tournament, Ishwar Sir and Bankim Sir gave the winning trophy to the Satyam House SubJunior, Junior and Senior group captains.

The games were exhilarating and everyone involved thoroughly enjoyed the event. It represented what we learn at AVM, the value of “We Are One”. And the spirit of true sportsmanship!

Congratulations to all the four houses for the brilliant games and good team spirit.
