“The five S’s of sports training are: stamina, speed, strength, skill, and spirit; but the greatest of these is spirit.”

Annual Sports Day of Swamy’s Matriculation Higher Secondary School was held on Saturday the 2nd of February 2019, with great zeal, excitement and a frolicsome atmosphere. The programme began with the Principal welcoming the esteemed gathering and emphasising the importance of sports in a child's life. The Chief Guest, Mr. Sivakumar Rajendran, Tamilnadu and County Cricketer, Chairman of Tamilnadu Badminton Super League, took the salute at the impressive March Past of the students, with stirring marching music by the school band.

The students entered the spirit of the occasion in a grand way with various drills and events. They presented a Karate display, mesmerising the audience with their energetic performances. Then the much-awaited Pyramid formation by the students kept the audience enthralled.

At the end of the day, students departed with a clear smile on their faces, and a feeling of achievement on a day well worth remembering.
