Shri Dwarkamai Sports Team was proud to organize their Third Annual Indoor Tennis Tournament at the Woburn Racquet Club on September 13th 2014. Our Tennis Tournament is being conducted every year to benefit Boston Children’s Hospital.
The community from all around the greater Boston neighborhood was invited to participate in the event and we had about 130 online registrations on our Dwarkamai website and more than 20 on the spot registrations. The number of registrations has increased every year in our tournaments. A little highlight that was different from the last 2 years tournaments was that this year we were able to separate the student's matches into three groups, under 10, under 13 and above 13. The feedback from many of our participants in regards to our Tournament this year was very encouraging. The organizers were well appreciated for their efficiency and execution of the Tournament along with proper use of technology and organizational skills.
All the matches were played with good spirit and every player exhibited his/her sportsmanship in the best manner. We appreciate all the participants for having come forward to exhibit their talents for a great cause. We were able to raise $1465 from the Tournament and will donate this to the Boston Children’s Hospital. All cheers to our Dwarkamai Seva volunteers and all the participants who shared their strength and spirit to make this Tournament happen and evolve to be a great success.
A special thanks to Woburn Racquet Club for sponsoring their court time this year. We also thank our own Mr. Akshay Thotangare for sponsoring the Trophies for the Tournament this year.
