Sri Lanka University Games – 2013
This year Sri Lanka University Games was held from
2013/05/10 to 2013/05/12 at University of Moratuwa. This
year Moratuwa team got advantage with much experienced
players and also university of Colombo and University of
Jayawardenepura also got very strongs teams. Both our
mens team and also womens team consisted with very
strong players like Rajapakse, Hettiarachchi , Lasitha
Herath, Thilini Koswatta and Lashika Rajapakse. So we had a
big confidence that we can face any powerful team.
We were able to smash University of Kelaniya (5-1)
and University of Wayamba (6-0). But unfortunately
were lost to University of Moratuwa (2-4). Although
we again smashed University of Uva wellassa (6-0)
and University of Jayawardenepura (4-2) we
couldn’t reach to catch the University of Moratuwa. So we had to satisfy with second place.
Our womens team also ended up with 4th place.
But they also fought very well. According to game
points we can see they have gained highest game
points. But unfortunately because of losing match
points to University of Moratuwa(2.5-3.5) and
University of Colombo (2.5-3.5) they ended up with
4th place. They were able to defeat University of
Rajarata (5.5-0.5), University of Ruhuna (3.5-2.5 )
and University of Jaffna (5.5-0.5).
