Dimapur, May 4 (EMN): A two-day open volleyball tournament organised by Aoyimsen Baptist Church Youth Ministry (ABCYM) began at Aoyimsen Panchayat cum multi utility complex on Fri. May 3.
Minister for higher and technical education Temjen Inna Along attended the event as the special invitee. He encouraged the participants to inculcate the quality of sportsmanship, to be focus and discipline themselves in their field of interest so that they will become a role model for others to follow.
"Only dreaming will not make the community grow whether in the field of sports, music and in the interest one take up but one need to be good starter's and ender's too" exhorted the legislator. Along called upon the gathering to come together, to be united and focus in everything that they do and asked them to take up responsibility in particular and in general.
"Out of all the sportsmen some of you will come out to be winners" he motivated them. Nothing is sufficient for us. Everyone wants to be much more than what we want to be, pointed out Along while addressing "the good thing about Nagaland is what we have has made us stronger yet what we don't have should makes us much more stronger".
"Greatness is achieved only when you come out of ordinary, extra-ordinary circumstances", he conveyed..
The tournament will culminate on May 5.
