The National Outreach Program Sports Gala was held on the 21^st of July 2019 by Sports at LUMS (SLUMS) which is currently the biggest student society at LUMS. Event heads Hira Anwar and Faisal Aslam along with their able team pulled off a fun-filled event for the prospective students of the National Outreach Program.

The event consisted of seven sporting events for both boys and girls. The sports included Basketball, Cricket, Badminton, Futsal, Dodge-the-ball, Volleyball, and Table tennis. There was a high turnout of students intending to showcase their prowess in various sports. It can proudly be estimated that more than a hundred matches of a variety of sub-events were conducted by the SLUMS team responsible for the event with very high numbers of participation from both boys and girls. The highest turnout sport-wise was in cricket with 13 teams and badminton where we received approximately 150 sign-ups.

Overall the NOP students participated enthusiastically in the event and enjoyed the facilities that the LUMS sporting community had to offer to them. At the end of the event, results were analyzed and awards such as Best Players and Winners of the respective sports were announced. We, at SLUMS, take pride in making the potential NOP students feel at home during their time in LUMS and for executing this large-scale event with such efficiency. We wish the students good luck for their application process next year and pray that they get admitted into this fine institution.

The event kicked off at around 12 in the noon. The participants were quite shy as it was apparent from their hesitation to take part in the event, but we had already anticipated that and groups were made to overcome that. The idea of teams assisted a lot since the children saw it easy to interact with their members and indulge in a competitive yet fun event. The sports originally included in the MoU were Tug of War, Dodge the Ball and Futsal, however, Badminton, Basketball, Table Tennis and essentially every other sport was played which was logistically feasible at that moment. The spontaneous element in the event was loved a lot by both the children and the LUMS admin, as it could be seen from the smiles and sweat of the participants. A lunch break was also given where the children were delighted to watch the final of the Cricket World Cup at Jammin. The day was wrapped with multiple Tug of War matches between boys and girls, which was easily the most fun part of the cheerful event.
