On the 12th of July, a badminton match was organized in NEHU Campus, indoor stadium. It was held for the faculty members and their children.
Children of various age groups had participated and had a choice of playing singles and doubles.
The tournament lasted for a week and there were different groups playing.
In the words of our little champ Garima Ghaley of 10 - B :
"I have been playing badminton for seven years and I was coached for two years in U Tirot Sing Stadium. However, now I go to play regular matches, and I practice almost everyday. I divide my time between my studies and badminton and coach the younger children in the stadium. On 12th July, I won the match by 11-21. I wish to pursue my dreams in Badminton.”
Garima was then awarded the Girls Badminton Champion 2017 for singles and doubles.
Loreto Convent Shillong wishes our rising star the best in pursuing her dreams.
