Inter House Carrom Competition (1^st May, 2017)

    The Inter House Sports Competitions at the Little Champs of TJIS for the academic year 2017-18 started with the Carrom Competition. Monsoon brings life to nature and fills the lives of millions of people with happiness and joy. But, it also often restricts the outdoor activities. Amongst many advantages of monsoon, encouraging indoor sports is definitely one of them, as students at Little Champs tend to enjoy outdoor sports.  

    Like many sports, carrom also requires focus and determination to succeed but, in addition to that, carrom also requires a good knowledge of geometry and angles to put the difficult coins in the pocket. Even though students don’t play carrom when the outdoor activities are possible, the spirit shown by the students indicates the enthusiasm especially amongst the younger students.

    The competition was organized in two categories: Boys and Girls. Each category had four houses and two pairs of students from each house for a knock out match. The students from all four houses showed enthusiasm and gave some stellar performances to kick off a very exciting sports calendar at TJIS. The students enjoyed it to the fullest without compromising the competitive aspect of it.

    After the preliminary rounds, four teams from each house qualified for the main draw. Fixture was prepared in such a way that teams from the same house do not face each other in any of the initial rounds.

    After some really close and nail biting finishes, the competition concluded with the final match. Here is the brief summary of the final score:
