Nottingham Malaysian Games


 

...

NOTTINGHAM MALAYSIAN GAMES
2012


Assalamuailkum, Ola, Bonjour Pompeians !! :)
For the 28th time, Nottingham Malaysian Society again presents you their yearly annual event which is the Nottingham Malasyian Games (NMG) 2012. Just so you know, NMG is one of the biggest Malaysian event held in the United Kingdom. Over 5000 students attend this event from about 56 University all over the United Kingdom and Ireland as well.

Nottingham Malaysian Games is not just about participating for the games and sports they hosted and compete for your university. Literally meeting new and old friends, members, from different University having fun sharing your experiences in the UK besides learning something new. Yet exploring the city of Nottingham was actually quite nice. And what's not, you got the chance to taste a lot of Malaysian Food like Nasi Lemak, Satay and many more aside from watching some traditional cultural performances. :D


So, as a tradition every year, University of Portsmouth did organised a trip to Nottingham as there is quite a few number of people participating for the games. Around 82 people from Portsmouth went for the Nottingham Malaysian Games which we provided one coach for the supporters and one mini bus for the athletes competing in the games.

This year we sent seven teams for the Nottingham Malaysian Games 2012. Which is really great that we got people that actually want to participate for the games and representing UPMY :) The games we participated were :-
  1. Men's 5 a-side football
  2. Men's Basketball
  3. Netball
  4. Badminton
  5. Table Tennis
  6. Congkak
  7. Batu Seremban

It was really a great day for everyone at the NMG. Even though our contingent did not win anything for the games we participated, but we presume everyone had fun playing it besides gaining new experiences as well. The day ended with the football finals before proceeding for the closing ceremony at the main sport centre. Yes, we can see everyone is really tired by looking at their faces on the bus on our way back to Portsmouth. But still a lot of smile as well before they went to sleep. We hope that you guys are really enjoyed with the event hoping that you would come again next year if you got the chance to. And more participation in the games as well please for next year. Hope to see you again at the next NMG 2013 :)
