CRICKET TEAM!! Our school cricket team participated in Inter School T20 Tournament organized

by Ajman University on 29/04/2018 at the Ajman MCC ground. In spite of playing
so well and dominating the match most of the time, the Team had to suffer a loss
against the mighty team from Indian School, Sharjah.
The 12-man squad led by the Coach Mr. Abdul Jaleel K.M. played with greater zeal
and vigour despite the challenging hot climate. The team had their moments in the
match and was well appreciated by the spectators. There were a handful of positive
stimuli to take from the match.
The TCS Team cherished the privilege to participate in such a prestigious tourna-
ment, where the young talents could showcase and sharpen their skills.
“Competitions as these not only provide a platform for students to display their skills,
but also serve as a strategic tool to monitor the expertise of cricket among students
in the UAE and tailor the coaching curriculum”.
