Intramural tournaments get into swing at Deree
October 16 , 2007 -Manos Moschopoulos


The Athletics Department will hold basketball, tennis, table tennis, chess and swimming intramural tournaments during this month. Students who participate in their favorite sports might also have the chance to make it on to the College's intervarsity teams.

In the first tournament of the year, seven teams will contest the intramural basketball trophy. Teams such as past winners The Benchers played well during the preliminary rounds. The scoreboard and fixtures list is available on the poster boards.

George Rossidis, last year's tennis champion, will try to retain his title against this year's competition, while Artur Khotenovskiy is contesting the chess tournament, hoping to recapture the title after losing last year's final. They are joined by a number of students that want to show off their talents to spectators and coaches that select the teams for tournaments such as those held at the American College of Thessaloniki, the university divison of Anatolia.

Students can sign up for any of the tournaments by adding their name and cellphone number to the lists in the main corridor of the Aghia Paraskevi Campus.
