𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐭, 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭! ✨ The 𝐍𝐨𝐰𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 brought together over 100 of us from across India to dive headfirst into three action-packed games: cricket, badminton, and pickleball. Spoiler alert—it was an absolute blast! 🔥 Cricket stole the spotlight (as it always does!) with four teams battling it out at the Sky Arena Turf. The weekend league matches were pure adrenaline—big sixes, clutch wickets, and nonstop cheers echoing across the field. Every moment had us glued, whether we were on the pitch or screaming from the side-lines. We are already looking forward the next year's tournament as we finish this wonderful one! Huge thanks to everyone who played, cheered, and made this weekend spectacular. You’re all MVPs in our book! 🏆 Aakash Shah | Ankan Adhikari | Naman Shah | Sachin Singh | Prateek Losalka | Neha Sharma Paria #TeamSpirit #WorkHardPlayHard #NowPurchase #EmployeeEngagement #Cricket #Badminton #Pickleball
