ICYM Sports

Various sports competitions held in preparation with the 30th Annual Day of ICYM Barkur attracted many parishioners and turned out to be crowd puller.

The main attractions of Slow Bike Racing and Slow Bicycle Racing for men and boys and slow Scooty race for women saw a large number of participants taking part with enthusiasm.

But the top of the icing was the competition of weaving the coconut tree leaves, which was definitely a scene stealer . See the  pictures clicked by Dr.Manoj D’Lima, who is doing a wonderful job as a Doctor, President of ICYM and great reporter for our website.
