On July 10th, 2022, Premier International IB Continuum School held its first SEE Cup with active participation of students from different schools in Kathmandu Valley. The objective of the tournament was to provide a platform for the students to showcase their skills, have fun, and at the same time refresh them after their prolonged academic sessions. The players that were only permitted to take part in the tournament are students who completed the Secondary Education Examination (SEE).
The tournament was initiated with the ball handover ceremony by the Managing Director, Mr. Basant Thapa, at 9:30 am at the school’s futsal court. The opportunity was offered to students interested in futsal and basketball. To take part in the game, the students were required to register for their preferred sport, either futsal or basketball, and the game was played for two days.
