National Dental Inter-Varsity Sports Competition
2-3rd April 2016, were the days when UKM Dental students athletes travelled to USM Penang to participate in the National Dental InterVarsity Sports Competition (NDISC) 2016, organised this year by the dental students from Penang International Dental College (PIDC).
400m Female race: Second Place
The 'should-be-6-hour-trip-but-turned-out-to-be-more-than-8-hour' trip felt so long. (Well it was, truly). Finally, we've arrived there! Yay to the beautiful USM Penang!
UKM Dental students athletes, or as they call themselves, UKM Badgers; Sweet like Honey, Army like Badgers! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
On the first day, almost all games started simultaneously, excluding for the track and fields race. Our Exco of Publicity (aka Me!) went to almost each games venue just to snap a picture of the team for each event. It was scorching hot and USM Penang was HUGE, so this was really one hell of a job. 😂
Introducing, the guys and gals who rocked the NDISC from UKM! Go Badgers!

Everything went well. Well, it went REALLY WELL for UKM Badgers! Some of the teams managed to get medals for UKM, and this was truly amazing! It was a lot of hard work, and they've managed to show us how hardwork really do pays off in the end.
For the first time ever, UKM Netball Team managed to get a BRONZE MEDAL! Hurray for them! 🎉
The preliminary rounds of the Track And Fields race was done that night at 7.00pm. Our athletes are amongst the best; all the female atheletes managed to proceed to the finals round which was going to be held the next morning. For males athletes, they did their best, and managed to be in the finals for 200m, 4x100m, and 4x400m races. Hurray to all of them! 🎉

Our Exco of Sports, Joshua Peh Jian Ren, summarize the whole event:-
And, in order to revive the spirits of those athletes that might be feeling down, due to them not being able to get gold medal or so on, Joshua made it very clear of how he felt towards all of them. 😊
So yeah, overall we did get Fifth Place, and it really WAS amongst the best achievements UKM has ever made.
It was a wrap.
UKM Badgers, YOUR ROCK! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
