The first sports competition of the year was the frisbee tournament. The students prepared for a month learning the rules of frisbee and preparing to play. The MPA spirit was present throughout the competition with students cheering each other on and giving it their all.
Gold House won the round-robin tournament with Prakash Amrita Kaur, Gurdain Singh, Aehardeep Kaur and Navdeep Singh winning the longest throw.
