The Sports and Student Affairs Department at the Institute of Business Management (IoBM), in collaboration with the IoBM Cricket Team, inaugurated the newly fabricated in-house cricket nets on Tuesday, October 8, 2024. The new facility is designed to enhance training and net practice for IoBM's cricket players, offering them a professional-grade space to refine their skills and techniques. The inauguration ceremony was led by Mr. Talib Karim, President of IoBM, with key attendees including Mr. Riaz Akbar Contractor, Head of the Sports and Student Affairs Department (SSAD); Mr. Nabhan Karim, Head of MARCOM; Mr. Hasan Irfan, Assistant Manager of SSAD; and members of the IoBM cricket team.
This initiative is part of IoBM's continued efforts to promote sports and provide top-notch facilities to its students. The addition of the in-house cricket nets is expected to have a significant positive impact on the performance and motivation of the cricket players. By having a dedicated space for regular practice, the players can hone their skills consistently and improve their gameplay. The availability of these nets will enable the team to simulate match conditions during training, helping them build better strategies and enhance their focus. Moreover, this facility will boost the morale of the players by showing them the institution's commitment to their development, potentially leading to stronger team performance in intercollegiate and inter-university tournaments. This modern infrastructure is seen as a crucial step in helping IoBM's cricket team achieve greater success on the field.
