Spardha 2010 begins.......


Finally,the day of reckoning has arrived.!!!!!! Spardha '10 commenced with an exuberant inaugral ceremony.

Things kicked off in a very ceremonial fashion with an enthusiastic march past by the participating teams.The Convenor Satyendra Nath Singh was the Torch Bearer.The evening was also marked by speeches from eminent personalities. Sri Satish Kanaujia, Secretary, Gymkhana, enlightened everyone about Spardha's glorious past and  claimed that this SPARDHA is bigger and better than the previous events. He was followed by the Gymkhana President Sri P.K.Mishra,  who appealed the students to enjoy the fest maintaining discipline at the same time. Our honourable chief guest Sri Gauri Shankar Singh, whose family boasts of some great sportsmen, stressed on the importance  of sports in one's life. He felt nostalgic as he recollected his college memories. The Guest of Honour Mrs. Neelu Mishra, a state level hockey player emphasised on the importance of sportsman spirit and requested the participants to play the game fair and square. After that our convener Sri Satyendra Nath Singh welcomed all the participating teams and organised an oath taking ceremony for all the teams.

All these formal events were followed by exhilarating performances by IT dance groups. A very dazzling display of fireworks imprinted the SPARDHA effect on the sky too.

The Director said that he has his full support to the SPARDHA organisers and wished luck to all the teams.

Luck : Ingredient or Garnish

A toss is nothing but a flip of coin with the probability turning out to be equal for both the faces. Kick off, decision to bat or bowl, serve in racket games are all decided `by chance’ rather than by chance. The reason might be to provide equal footing to both the players. Just to make the game more interesting we could have it that the player or team at a lower ranking be given the slight advantage. But then if this is done we are branding the superior. The luck however marks them as equal.

How often have we seen an LBW decision wrongly given, off side going unnoticed at an initial stage & then bringing the match to the wire. This might be an error of jugdement on the umpire’s part but luck for the playing sides, good or bad. Of course, it sometimes changes the course of the match altogether. How can we forget the fateful India - Australia test match when Austarlia seemed to have 13 onfield players!!!! But then again each coin has two sides.

When both the sides play equally well then who wins?? May be the side which is more superstitious. A pinch of chaos and a teaspoon of uncertainty is what luck contributes in the recipe of a good game.
