It's been many years since I counducted any Basketball tournament in Bangalore what with my preoccupation of promoting basketball in Tumkur Distt. for the last three years. The tournament starved children of Bangalore finally burst open in the demonstration of their skills and it was a sight. The `exhibition' of text-book basketball by St. Mary's School, Gandhinagar, Tumkur was the icing on the cake.
The participating schools were - Gnana Teja, Cluny Convent-Jalahalli, BEL-CBSE, Kensri, K.V Composite, Regency P.S, St. Mary's Tumkur, St. Lourdes' - and others.
Standing for long long hours; patting the back of players; admonishing fouls; suggesting to the rookies; looking at small bruises - it all happened. Navdeep HELPED! After that it was easy. Referreeing `justly' - the key to success of tournaments - added to joy of everyone.
THE YEAR OF SUMPOORNA BASKETBALL CONTINUES - BASKETBALL - MORE BASKETBALL - STILL MORE BASKETBALL.
