MBS Glory

MBAT 2008 is over. It was a great success for whole MBS team. Apart from the results, it showed the unity of whole team members and participants the fantastic spirit amoung them. At the end of tournament MBS managed to stay in 5th poition in overall. This result is satisfying because all four schools above MBS (LBS, IESE, HEC, Oxford) have more number of students and so more number of participants in MBAT which gives them opportunity of participation in more competitions. For example LBS number of participants is about three times of MBS.

But MBS managed to be in top in almost all major team sports. MBS' volleyball team dominated whole tournament and obtained all the gold medals in volleyball (volleyball, beach volley mixed, beach volley pairs). MBS' football team managed to stay in second position and obtain silver medal and cricket team acheived the same success. Basketball team despite of fantastic performance couldn't make to the final and finished in 4th position (however unfortunately some changes in schedule and rules had some negative effects on team).
Finally MBS' bronze medals came from track and field, men's 100 meters and women's long jump.

MBS' volleyball team success will be a record in MBAT which will be only repeatable in future and it's impossible for any school to do a better job.
