The games were organized as per section of Kindergarten, Primary, Upper primary and secondary section and the rules were adjusted as per their age. Every participant had to participate in minimum of three games from every pool. They registered themselves through Google registration forms. The participants also had to keep the camera on during the sports. An overall champions trophy was awarded to the best boy 1.Path Paliwal (secondary section) 2.Aayush Birajdar (primary section) and best girl 1.Snehal Gunki (secondary section) 2.

It was a novel way to keep up the spirits of the students in the pandemic time. The teachers were grateful to their Principal Fr Justus Mendis for taking up this novel initiative and the management for their support. It was a great experience for all the teachers and students for making the event a grand success. Truly, sports empower each one of us in its own unique way.
