HI Everyone,
On the 16th of October 2009, MSA, in collaboration with SSA, TSA, and CSS, organized the first ever ICG ( inter-club games ) in Macquarie. The purpose of the event was to bring the societies of different cultures together to further strengthen the bonds between the different societies. The sports that were played were basketball, squash, badminton, futsal and volleyball all held within the vicinity of the Macquarie University Sports and Aquatic center. The beginning of the event was dull but eventually picked up the pace as more and more members from each society showed up to lend their support to their given teams.
The weather on the day was perfect as there was no rain as speculated by the weather forecast. At the end of the day, it was not a day of competition but rather a social event as all the players put their competitiveness aside and just had fun. In conjunction with the event, a BBQ was held at the side of the gym to feed the hungry players and further present time for members from each society to socialise. The event started at 9am and came to a close at approximately 4pm, with players from each society going home contented and satisfied. The event ran pretty well for its first time and I certainly hope that the following committee and the next would make this event an annual event and maybe even get more societies to join in the fun.
