About the event
Sport and health run through the whole UPES academic year. The Dean of Student Welfare office plans trials, intramural championships, fests and health drives month by month, so that students always have a reason to stay active, and so that community fixtures such as the Shaheed Memorial Cricket Tournament have a fixed place on the calendar.
Impact
A full year of sport and health, with room built in for the community.
9months of planned sport and health activities
4days of blood donation across both campuses
27days set aside for the Shaheed Memorial tournament
Every student has a steady programme of trials, leagues and fests to join.
The Shaheed Memorial tournament, which supports soldiers' families, has a guaranteed slot each year.
A blood donation drive on both campuses is part of the plan, not an afterthought.
