THE BIG QUESTION

Both the president and the secretary are very poor in their English. Followers of this sport are wondering how this duo will converse at international meets. Will this be setbacks whilst going for international meets and when foreign teams visit Sri Lanka? This may pose quite a big question.
PLAY IT WITH THE WILLOW
If you are playing a game the best is to play it where the willow is used. A leading player who now resides in a house in the Wattala area which costs Rs. 18 million is all set to move into a house costing Rs. 110 million. What is more he has signed the cheque for the said amount in one shot! Where has he earned this money? On the playing fields of course! So those who are planning to send their children to play any sport, make sure that they play it with the willow.
THE CHIPS ARE NOT DOWN
The news is buzzing as to how a TV company, which was written off, has made a sudden turn and is now ready to give the other TV companies a big fight. They are now ready to be in the field for three years with 110 million in the bank. How they had collected the said money is a big secret. The fact is that there are people who are ready to help you even when the chips are down.
VOCIFEROUS SUPPORT
The coach for a key netball tournament to be held in Sydney, Australia was selected a few days ago and the ‘pool’ selected for the event is now hard at training. The team has about two months to train for the event but the strange thing is that an year ago a group of netball fans had made arrangements to go to Sydney and now all plans have been finalised for the world event. So even if the team flops they are sure to have vociferous support from this group.
GALA TIME
Officials of a certain sport are having a grand time these days. They are having grand parties at Five Star Hotels almost every day. The reason is that they are being felicitated by two candidates who are aspiring to be at the top of this sport after the Annual General Meeting. There is a big struggle for this spot between two candidates and they are leaving no stone unturned to be at the top. Due to this other officials whose votes are being sought out are in luck’s way.
