Telematch 2015

Band is not just about hard core practices but having fun too, as the adage goes all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Band members need some fun in their band life too, right? Thus, on the 29th of September 2015, a telematch was held. A variety of games were organized, such as Balloon King, Bingo, Capture the Flag and Agar.io. Surely you can picture the scene, members running around with big smiles hanging on their faces and joyous laughter reverberated through the sports center as they strived to win the best group award. What happen to the worst group? You might be wondering. Well, they were hit with a plate of whip cream straight into their face!
