OBU Past vs Present Games a Roaring Success
OBU Lunch & AGM - Record Attendence
 
It was tremendous to see Wesleyites, young, old & not-so-old flock together as one, under the fraternal band of the Double Blue to be apart of the Past vs Present games at Hockey, Soccer, Basketball & Cricket.
 
In the past, the old boys barely managed to make up a team. This year was different, old boys lined up enthusiastically and patiently to take their turn and take part in respective games. With so much enthusiasm oozing, no wonder the Old Boys completed a clean sweep in all games.
