3. VOLUNTEERING ACTIVITY IISM students volunteering @ MAHARASHTRA STATE OLYMPICS 2022-23 IISM believes that in the spor?ng industry, knowledge cannot be gained by being confined within the four walls of the classroom. Hence, IISM takes the students out of the classroom and into the field for volunteer opportuni?es, where they learn the best. To help them understand the challenges a sports management expert faces while execu?ng a mega event, IISM sent 19 students to volunteer at the Maharashtra State Olympics 2022–23. Of the total 19 students, 12 were deployed in Pune and 7 were deployed in Mumbai for the basketball leg of the Maharashtra State Olympic Games. The students were assigned numerous tasks, which they executed flawlessly. These included looking a?er the athletes' accredita?on, managing the crowd and VIPs during the opening ceremony, comple?ng the awards ceremony, assis?ng in the torch relay event at the Gateway of India, event opera?ons, transporta?on of the athletes and sports kit distribu?on. Everyone praised the students for their diligence and commitment to their work. 3

5. PROUD WINNERS OF IISM FOOTBALL TEAM AT PARAKRAM'23 Football has always played an important role in our students' lives. From volunteering at the FIFA World Cup 2022 Qatar to winning football matches at sports fes?vals, our students have always taken advantage of every opportunity to stay as close to the football field as possible. It was therefore a no-brainer for them to par?cipate In Parakram'23, a sports fes?val hosted by Nirma University's Ins?tute of Management (IMNU), and give it their all. Our football team defeated IMNU in the final football match at Parakram'23. During the match, the students demonstrated their superior football skills and defeated the home team 6-0. Such victories mo?vate them to con?nue compe?ng in more fests and improving their game. 5

7. RISING SPORTS STARS OF INDIA IISM students breathe sports and are staunch sports enthusiasts. Our students come from various fields of expertise as well as are active sports players from club, state, national and international level. Here are some of our students who are no less but rising stars of India. Agnes Jeena | Cricketer Isn't life about metamorphosis? Seeing dreams and then turning them into reality. One such transforma?on happened in the life of the IISM’s second-year student Agnes Jeena. She has set an example of passion and dedica?on for she got selected to represent the Mumbai University Team at such a young age. Here Agnes Jeena is sharing her experience, inspira?on and journey: “I always liked sports but when I was 14 when I started developing a crazy passion for cricket. My biggest inspira?on to get into cricket is AB De Villiers. Cricket helped me to develop a lot of crucial skills like pa?ence and cri?cal thinking. It taught me that it's not always about winning but having the prepara?on and will to win. I started by playing for my school when I was in 9th STD under my coach Mr Rahul Giri and now I represent the RG Girls Cricket Club. Being a sports enthusiast, I decided to make my career in the sports industry and explore what happens behind the scenes of a spor?ng event, and that's when I found out about IISM. IISM is where I got the opportunity to begin my bachelor's degree in sports management and learn in-depth about the sports industry.” You can read about journey of our students on IISM's social media platforms.
