We often neglected our own health just to care for others health. We live in a world of irony where healthcare professions are not profession in their own health. TuPSS held our annual Badminton day and Sports carnival at 11th November and 19th November respectively.

Serve, Smash and Win 2017 held on the 11^th of November at South Quay Badminton court, the OCs have dedicated their time to make this event a successful one.

On the 19^th November 2017, Our School annual sports carnival has been held at the sports complex in Taylor’s Lakeside sports complex. Registration opens early in the morning, led by the year 1 organizing team, led by the Project Director, Ong Yi Xian. After the registration, the participants are being gathered into the basketball court to startup with some warmup dance.

After warmup and loosen their muscles, the participants have been assigned to their own respecting team. There are 4 teams in total, the Dopamine, Serotonin, Endorphin, and Adrenaline.

Each group started up by self-introduction, a little background on their own and then proceeds with group cheers.

The next activity on the list is station games. They are required to go around the campus and find clues for their next station. Each station will give them the next clue to the next station. Although it was hectic and tiring, they seems to enjoy the activities the OCs has put up with.

Clues

Lunch, the most time where participants sit down and have their meals with each other. Although it was only packed lunch, but with everyone around, it still feels like we are having a banquet at the sports complex.

After Lunch, the activities proceed with captain ball. The objectives is to pass the ball to the keeper at the end of the field. When the person at the far end of the field gets the ball, the team gets one point. Everyone had fun with it. They give in their 101% just to earn the glory to their house.

I Pass !!

Score !!

DAB !!

Carry on with basketball, a more common sports that we used to play, basically just pass the ball, into the hoop, then you score points. This is when things got competitive where everyone wants to be the very best. Some of the participants who are not able to join in the morning has arrived. Without any trouble fitting into the teams, all of them performed terrifically well. This shows how closely the relationship between each badge is.

I jump!

Quick get the ball !!

A little off time for the participants and the OCs
