SOPU 2013 has been done!
Sport Olympiad

by President University Student Union under the supervision of President
University Student Council. It is a sports competition involving all the
majors that exist at President University. They compete to be the best in every

There were 15 games: Futsal, Basketball,
Badminton, Volleyball, Relay Race, Swimming, Tug of War, DoTA, PES, Table
Tennis, Chess, Tennis, Triathlon, Golf, and Cheerleadance. Each of the games
sought the Gold Medalist, Silver Medalist, and Bronze Medalist. In this year’s
SOPU, the committee also looked for the Best Finishing in every game and
All-Star players in some of the games.
The Opening
Ceremony of SOPU 2013 was held on May 27th 2013, at 6.30 PM at
dormitory area. In the Opening Ceremony, the atmosphere of rivalry from each
major was very strong. All majors gathered and shout their own yells to show
their spirit and that they were ready to be in the competition, complete with
the attribute that made their majors look distinguished. But of course, what
SOPU need is competitiveness and fair play.
The Opening
Ceremony was attended by Chairwoman of PUSC, President of PUSU, Mr. Jhanghiz
Syahrivar as the representative of Vice Rector III, and also Head of Alumni and
Student Bureau, Mr. Susilo. The Opening Ceremony was opened by the Project
Manager of the Event, Made Pradnyana Putra and was officially begun when the
Olympiad torch flames burned out.
In this year’s
SOPU, there was a cute mascot called Imau. It was a figure of yellow tiger that
complemented SOPU 2013 theme, Jungle. Imau was expected to be the symbol of
power and sportiveness that can boost the spirit of the athletes who took part
in the competition of SOPU 2013.
Right after
the opening ceremony, the games started. Everyday, from Monday to Thursday, 5
PM until 10 PM. The qualifications, quarter-final, semi-final, until the
prestigious final match, had been passed by the athletes that brought the pride
of their majors.
The finale of
SOPU 2013 was Cheerleadance Competition, which is becoming the most popular
competition, annually. The Cheerleadance teams had been preparing their
performances for about a month. What shown was the best.
Closing
Ceremony on June 29th became the peak moment of SOPU 2013. It was an
awarding night for all of the achievements. All the effort would be paid by the
award given. It was also the form of appreciation of the sportsmanship shown in
the whole SOPU month. Then it came to the most awaited moment, announcement of
the General Winner. Accounting with their Red and Gold crowd became the General
Winner of SOPU 2013!! Their win was after the other major by their total medals
achievements and by winning the Cheerleadance Competition.
That was all
about SOPU 2013. Hope that we, the President University Students, are able to
keep the spirit of competitiveness and sportsmanship. SOPU held is for tighten
the relationship and togetherness between majors and in the major itself.
