08 Feb. 2017 – The 6th Interscholastic USJ Games are set to start this week, with a record number of 2400 athletes participating from 60 different schools in Beirut and Mount Lebanon.
From the 10th of February and until the 19th, the schools are set to compete in different sport competitions such as basketball, badminton, table tennis, futsal, volleyball, swimming, handball and cross country, as well as enjoy the exceptional atmosphere.
Going into the 6th year of organizing this event, the University of Saint Joseph’s message is clear:” Université Saint- Joseph seeks to revive sports competitions at schools believing in the ability and the power of this sector to develop sports on both universities and national levels.”
There are no doubts as to the fact that such tournaments give the young athletes a taste of how competing under fair play and sportsmanship rules is. It will also help them prepare for a professional career atmosphere, should they opt to pursue one.
Best of luck to all participating schools, the competition will surely be as exciting and amazing as the previous years if not more!
