Well done squash team! we lost only narrowly and once again like in all the other sports, it was the fighting spirit of the team that made me proud to be from Taurus! A big thanks to the team!

Scrabble we got SILVER! losing at the very last moment due to a tremendous piece of luck from the opponent team. It was a heartbreak for the poor scrabble players and to see them having tried so hard and leading all the way, only to lose at the last moment to what i can only describe as luck was really heartrending. Still, you guys played your hearts out and i am proud of each and every one of you! Sometimes luck plays a factor in competitions, but the way you guys played out there today, you will always be champions in my eyes :)
Huge praise for the scrabble team!

Football we bowed out of the group stages but at least we bowed out with a win and only got knocked out by goal difference! We needed a win of 2 goals over Phoenix to qualify for semi finals. Phoenix, who were one of the favourites and whom everyone expected to win us. Still, we went out there and outplayed them and won 2-1! but still it was not enough to qualify us. But in the end, the fighting spirit showed by this group of underdogs who fought against adversity and almost triumphed was truly inspiring! GO TAURUS!

Debate we've achieved GOLD!
In fact we had 2 teams in the finals and one team got GOLD while the other got BRONZE! Still in the end we're not allowed to get the points for both Gold and Bronze so we only got the points for Gold. still, extremely good job by the debate team!

Tennis we've achieved 4th Place! In truth, we were not expected to make much impact in this competition and the fact that we managed to break into semi-finals was an overachievement in itself! Good job Tennis team!
