SIT Sports, Pune
Ever since its inception, Symbiosis Institute of Technology has done nothing but strive forward in the field of sports and games. As the years went on, the love for sports amongst the students of SIT only grew. Soon enough, there was a need for a Sports Council, which was made with one true purpose - manage and nurture sports and its events to create an environment where every passionate player gets a chance, while also making sure that talent is given opportunities to represent at the highest level.
Today, SIT Sports Council comprises of 4 students, our Faculty In-charge Prof. Vikas Gulia and the abled mentorship of Mr. Anthony Augustine. With a team like this, SIT Sports has been able to create a platform which showcases our love for the sports we play and how passionate our teams are about it. SIT has, by far, the highest student population out of all the Symbiosis colleges and a total of 17 different sports are played inside campus, a number which only goes up every year. With such power as the Sports Council, comes great responsibility. And SIT Sports showed time and again, that we only have the students' best interests at heart.
With virtual activity sessions, Sports Team Captains introduction, Sports Quiz, SymbiThon, and a lot of other events under our belt already, we believe it’s just the start. All of these challenges like lockdown didn't stop us and our students from getting better and becoming the best versions of themselves everyday. We loved the enthusiasm shown by students and Faculty alike, and it motivates us to see people believe in what we believe. This passion, combined with the constant efforts from the Sports Council will make sure that the SIT Sports flag is always flying high.
