The Institute-Varsity-Polytechnic (IVP) Games are underway and the polytechnics, universities and the technical institute are locking horns in combat in eight sports – badminton, basketball, touch rugby, floorball, football, table tennis, netball and volleyball.
Don’t blink though – the action will be over before you know it. Touch rugby will end in a short eight days while football season is the longest at a month.
We have all the fixtures for download here on Red Sports (courtesy of Red Crew Ng Cheng Cong who hunted it down for us).
The volunteer Red Crew will cover what we can but some sports will get left out inevitably. Why can’t matches be scheduled once a week over the course of a few months?
That way, we can write about more games, build momentum and sports fans can get to know the players. With this fixtures pile up, it’s over before you know it.
