Rural Sports – LOYOLA Shines in Style!

The District level Rural Sports was held at Sree Kanteerava Stadium conducted by the ‘Youth Service Department.’ Our students took an active part and bagged many prizes in the following events: Our Kho-Kho boys’ and Kabbadi girls’ team were the champions. Both boys and girls won the Volleyball trophies & in Basketball, boys were the runners-up. In Athletics, the stars of our school Selva and Meenakshi got first and second in 300 meters respectively

After the District-level meet, 40 of our students got selected for the State-level which was held in 3 different places: Davanagere, Jagaluru and Mangalore. Our Kabbadi team became the runners-up while other teams put up a good fight but could not turn the table of luck.

In December, our students took part in State-level Athletics conducted by ‘Star Track Athletics Club.’ Our school students Selva secured first in 1500 meters while Karthick stood second in 200 meters and Johnson bagged the third prize in Junior shot-put. Our dear Principal, Fr Henry, congratulated all the winners and encouraged them to venture into many more competitions.
