VIRAJ 2022 IS FINALLY HERE
If anyone has it in him and works hard, he can touch the sky
Milkha Singh, Former Olympian
Sports are the one thing which is an equalizer and a unifier of the masses. Be it the Indian test victories in Gabba, Lord’s and the Oval, or Neeraj Chopra becoming India’s first gold medalist in Athletics. Be it the Lakers winning in 2020, or the Chelsea winning the Champions League. Sports have provided us an escape and a distraction from these terrible times that affected all Humanity. It has provided an opportunity to drown your sorrows in ecstasy and healed wounds of many people. After two years of the Covid-19 pandemic, we are finally back.
The Sports Committee at NLUO is organizing its annual flagship sports event – VIRAJ 2022, from 22nd to 24th April 2022. The Grand Opening Ceremony will be held on 21st April 2022. The three-day event will witness disciplines such as Athletics, Badminton, Basketball, Cricket, Football, Lawn Tennis, Table Tennis, Throwball, and Volleyball. The sports fever and thrill is coming back to the Campus, as contingents from prestigious colleges will fight tooth and nail in these very competitive events.
The overcast weather has gone way, and the new sun has dawned upon us. So come out, the fans with their roaring voices playing as an extra man and raising the morale of the players as one single NLUO family. Players, whose feet are aching to march into the arena and give all of their blood, tears, and sweat for the Ultimate Glory.
Come out this summer, this 22nd April, for the carnival of Sports, and enjoy and relish in this carnival which is the test of skill, patience, leadership, endurance.
NLUO Family, the “GLORY AWAITS” for you.
You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you’re hit. It’s about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done!?br />~ Rocky, Rocky Balboa (2006)
