Cricket Tournament, Running for the PEACE

- MANNAM International Victory Cup Cricket Tournament -

Finally MANNAM International Victory Cup cricket tournament progressed from October 6^th to 27^th came to an end. We grow up much more than last year, and we still make an effort to tell our MANNAM spirit, the PEACE.

Cricket tournament was held only in Busan. Cricket teams from many regions who heard that MANNAM held second cricket tournament wanted to participate. As they really wanted to participate in tournament, they actively engaged. We were surprised at their passion.

Games were progressed favorably. Compared with last year cricket tournament, we got skill to progress the event, tournament’s scale became bigger. Players started games with the big hope of the first place. Even though they are from different countries and have different career, they looked the same goal.

However, the first place could be the one team. Hazara Pak won the first place in succession, and Changwon Lackers won the second place. Although they contended the victory, two teams were delighted with dance. After the game, they gather round and dance together. There was no loser’s sorrow or winner’s conceit. Just there was joy.

In this time, I was satisfied that we handed them the peace with different shape. We did hand printing follow the peace mark on the banner with our message; Different color, different size, but same mind to peace. Also we took pictures with the paper which is written world peace with MANNAM.  It was meaningful work and I’m happy to gather more people who join and proceed with our sprit.
