Report on Anastomosis-2016

On behalf of the Organizing committee, it is my pleasant duty to present to you a

brief report about Anastomosis 2016, First inter-medical college Sports

tournament organized by Hamdard institute of Medical Sciences and Research,

Jamia Hamdard

Academic learning and sports always complement each other; in fact they resemble

the two sides of the same coin. The qualities of leadership, sharing, team spirit and

tolerance are learnt from the sports and these are the very important qualities which

should be present in a good doctor.

We at HIMSR believe that sports should be a part of medical education curriculum.

The MCI also encouraged this as evident from the vision 2015 in which a two month

foundation course is included with yoga and sports as an integrated part.

Anastomosis was a three day event from 25th to 27th April 2016 conducted with the

aim of providing the students an opportunity to showcase their skills and develop a

competitive spirit. This was also to provide them a platform for interaction with the

students and teachers of other medical colleges. It was originally planned in February

but due to some unforeseen circumstances it had to be postponed.

It was on the suggestion of the students themselves that the name of Anastomosis

was finalized, the meaning of which is interconnection between channels thus aptly

represent the spirit behind this event.

Five sports event were conducted included cricket, football, basketball, badminton

and table tennis. Cricket and football was only for boys while both boys and girls
