BIS Correspondent
BORIVLI, JULY 24, 2010: July 18, was a great day in the Parish Activity Calendar. It was on this day that the ever energetic youth of our Parish decided to have the Parish football and throw ball Tournament. The games were inaugurated by Fr. George Carlos. In all there were twelve football teams and eleven throw ball teams consisting of both young and old parishioners. The heavy showers did not mar the spirit of the day but only added to the enthusiasm.

It was pleasant to see the different teams in their colourful uniforms warming up at different locations of the vast ground and planning their strategies. The teams that put in some hard work and practice finally won the day. In the football tournament Gorai II Community won the finals and New MHB Colony were the runners-up. In the women’s throw ball tournament Jayraj Nagar Community won the finals and the runners-up team was the Chikoowadi Community. The winning teams celebrated the occasion with a great deal of fanfare.
Despite the results all sports lovers of the Parish enjoyed the day, meeting others, exchanging pleasantries and creating a bond of friendship among the communities. Every one, both spectators and participants are eagerly looking forward for the next meet.
