15 April 2018
The Inter-Residential Colleges (RC) Basketball Competition, the last game in the Council Chairman Bowl, was held successfully on 15 Apr 2018 at the Sports and Amenities Centre of HSMC. Four RCs formed a team of five to 15 players with no restriction on the combination of male and female players. Points earned by female players would be doubled.
Both Mosaic College and Amity College assigned female players to participate in the game. After rounds of plays, Wellness College won the championship. The first runner-up went to Evergreen College while Mosaic College was second runner-up. In addition, Choi Ming Hin, resident of Mosaic College, continued to be the Best Shooter this year scoring 33 points after four matches.
A prize presentation ceremony was held for the Council Chairman Bowl after all competitions completed. With the generous support from the College Council Chairman, Dr Moses Cheng, the Council Chairman Bowl was instituted this year to award the overall champion of the inter-RC competitions and to foster inter-RC interactions and sportsmanship. This year, the Council Chairman Bowl consisted of five inter-RC competitions: Tug of War, Badminton, 4 x 100 Relay, Dodgeball and Basketball. To attract more female residents to join, a certain number of female players was required for most competitions; and the Dodgeball Competition, which required relatively less physical strength, was also organised this year.
Before announcing the results of the Council Chairman Bowl, Dr Moses Cheng elaborated on his belief and insight into the importance of organising and participating in inter-residential colleges events. He encouraged residents to take part in residential life by sharing his own experience when residing in residential college. Student representatives from each RC presented a souvenir to Dr Cheng, expressing their gratitude to his donation and unfailing support to the Bowl.
The 1st Council Chairman Bowl went to Evergreen College with a total of 420 points with two championships achieved in the inter-RC competitions.
Congratulations to all the winners on their achievements and thanks to all team players for their participation!
