At REVA University, students are encouraged to participate in various sports that are offered on campus. Here, we believe that a sport has the power to increase alertness, confidence, discipline, patience and team spirit in a student. At the University, sports plays an important role in moulding the personality of a student. We believe playing a sport instils the value that failure is a stepping-stone to success. A sport can bring in traits that are necessary to face challenges in the real world, making students well-balanced individuals.
Recently, REVA University conducted the South Zone Inter-University Table Tennis Tournament for Men in collaboration with the Association of Indian Universities organised by the Department of Physical Education from January 3rd to 6th, 2022 with great zeal and enthusiasm.
Honourable Chancellor Dr. P. Shyama Raju, Vice Chancellor Dr. M. Dhanamjaya Registrar Dr. N. Ramesh and Director of Physical Education, REVA University, Dr. Deepak inaugurated the tournament. As many as 74 universities in South India participated in the tournament. A total of 330 players, 70 managers and coaches from various universities along with 8 technical officials from the Karnataka Table Tennis Association were part of the event.
The four-day event saw 74 matches out of which the nail biting finals was played between SRM University, Chennai and the University of Madras. The triumphant and proud winner of the tournament was SRM University.
It was inspiring for hundreds of students who witnessed the discipline in participants and we hope that the hard work and passion in these players motivated the students in the audience to pursue sports in their field of interest. We, at REVA University, have been happy that the AIU recognized REVA to host the prestigious tournament on campus and we are delighted to be a University that supports sports in more ways than one.
