The insolympics kicked off amid much fanfare that usually accompany great sporting events. The sports committee headed by Austin best ensured that the insolympics ground was properly set to witness the battle between House Dominato, House Dedicado, House Resiliento and House Tenacio tagged "game of thrones". Prior to the start of the games the various houses had already started talking tough with House Tenacio showing how prepared they were by winning the competitions that held during the logo unveiling ceremony (of course other houses had contrary opinions).
Chess(male category) was the first to start, it was clearly a game of patzers and grandmasters. House resiliento showed that they were the house of grandmasters by having two finalist - Kenneth and ND baba. The battle for the insolympics grandmaster was keenly contested with Kenneth getting the better of ND baba to emerge as the insolympics Chess champion. The battle for bronze will be between Austin Best of House Dominato and Peter Prince of House Dedicado.
Next stop was Ludo (male category), the game of dice didn't fail to live up to expectation as it gathered a lot of spectators with some of the houses hoping to get their first medal. House Resiliento further made their intentions of sitting on the throne known by yet again having two finalist -ND baba and Agu, Agu won the final after a jaw dropping contest between these two dice masters. The third place match was an all House Tenacio affair between Udeh Michael and Mathew, with Udeh Michael ensuring that House Tenacio grabbed their first medal .The ludo(female category) was as much fun as the ludo (male category) but this time house resiliento couldn't replicate their earlier success as two resilientos that made it to the semi final -chioma Obiora and Chioma Opara both settled for a third place duel after loosing their semi final matches. The female ludo final was between Chidinma Ikegulu of House Dominato and Chiamaka Ejimogu of House Dedicado. Chidinma Ikegulu after a grueling duel ensured that she clinched the first gold medal.
Other games such as table tennis(male category), scrabble(male and female category), chess(female category), and PS(female category) have all kicked off and are at various stages. We will be sure to keep you updated as the games progress.
