Dear Friends,
With the help and co-operation of all of you we successfully hosted the
inaugural Sohar Corporate Cricket tournament-2010 on Friday, 12th Nov. 2010. The
event was planned and executed by the Sports committee of ISC, Sohar led by Mr
Nell Vaz and Dr Mahesh Mistry. They recieved tremendous help apart from others
from Mr. Sikander, Mr. Ilyaas and Mr. Akeel. ISC, Sohar is grateful to them for
helping out.
The tournament was well supported by Al Nahdha group of companies, Godrej
Khimji, Zubair Automotives, Nagarjuna Construction Company, Falcon Services,
Saud Bahwan Automobiles, Crowne Plaza Hotel and Muscat Pharmacy. We are thankful
to all our sponsors for helping us out.
A record 32 corporate teams took part in the event. These many numbers was
the first for any such tournament in Oman played over one day. 31 matches were
played starting from 7 am when the first match started till 12 midnight when the
final ended. The final was won by
L & T, MFY in a keenly contested match with
Al Jazeera Steel. Hopefully
this will be an annual tournament.
We are hopeful of organizing more such events in the future. We are looking for
ideas on what all events to conduct. Please do not hesistate to call me or send
an e-mail with your suggestion.
If anybody has any contact with any cultural or dance troupe back in India or
has the capability to conduct a Quiz or an Antakhshiri competition do let us
know. We encourage everyone to help us out.
In the immediate future we have a
members-only picnic coming up
strictly for ISC, Sohar members. Non-members will not be permitted
to join. So if you are not members please enrol yourself and get ready to have
fun. Membership forms can be downloaded from our website

With warm regards and happy holidays. Also wishing Eid Mubarak to all of you.
