We Are the Champions!

We Are the Champions!

The district basketball matches were held in our school on 6th October 2016. The matches were tough and challenging, but as the title of this article suggests, St. Peter’s emerged victorious in all the six categories that we participated in! This was an unforgettable moment in my life. The matches were tough since the teams from the plains (Dindigul, Theni, etc.) were tough opponents. Our coach, Mr.Joseph was very proud of us when we won the matches. The junior team has won the district title after 7 years! And I am proud to have been a part of that team.

After the district matches, we progressed to the next round which was the Divisionals. The divisionals are only for the Under-17 and Under-19 categories. To the great delight of the whole school, the senior boys team (Under-17 category) won the divisionals and have now moved to the State Level for the very first time in the history of the school!! The matches were thrilling and had a nail-biting finish. We were sad that we lost in the other categories (with close margins) but have hope that we will win it in the next year!

These victories brought great joy to our Correspondent sir, Administrator ma’am, our Director Rohan sir, senior co-ordinator of CBSE Sandra ma’am and all the teachers and students! I hope this winning streak continues in the coming years, since WE ARE THE PETERITES – THE MIGHTY MIGHTY PETERITES!
