The Grand Finale of 2014 Inter-House Games Competition

In human events whatever has a beginning has an end. Bigard memorial seminary Enugu on 14th march, 2014 brought to a close this year’s Inter-House Games Competition. The grand finale started exactly at 2:00 PM after the welcome address presented by Rev. Fr. Dr. Theophilus Ukoro Igwe, the Rector of Bigard Memorial Seminary Enugu. In a clear and precise manner, the Rector welcomed all to the grand finale of the 2014 Bigard Inter-House Competition, pointing out that the aim of the competition is to get ready for the 2015 All Nigerian Major Seminaries’ Games at Bodija, Ibadan.

Hence, he thanked the games department headed by Rev Fr Dr Albert Ikpenwa, for their zealous commitment in promoting the excellence for which Mother Bigard is known through this year’s Inter-House games Competition. More still, he thanked the formators for their team spirit and the seminarians for their mature understanding and commitment all through the period. He appreciated the presence of the Bigard’s lay staff and all others who have come to watch the event. Finally, he enjoined all to relax and get oneself entertained.

After the welcome address, the competitions that were yet to be concluded ensued. Thus, at the closure of this fierce tournament, many winners in different houses emerged and they were awarded with trophies.

In an elated spirit, Fr Ikpenwa, the games moderator, thanked the Bigardians for their active participation and observed that there were no signs of “Junioribus Senioribus” throughout the competition. He emphasized the fact that all the selections during the competition were based on competence.

In conclusion, the 1st Vice Rector, Rev Fr Dr Cletus Umezinwa in his speech, congratulated all those that won trophies and confessed that this years’ sports competition was well organised. Sequel to this, he thanked Rev Fr Dr Albert Ikpenwa for his classic organisational skills which was the brain behind the success of the 2014 Bigard Inter-House games competition.
