The annual New Year sports festival, organized by the YMCA of Pamunugama for the local children, took place on May 1st at the YMCA premises. This year, the event was organized and coordinated by the association's youth group.
Over twenty games were held, catering to different age groups ranging from Pre-School children to 16-year-olds.
The competitions included traditional favourites like the "Placing the Eye on the Elephant," pillow fights, lime-carrying races, "Gini" races, and breaking the lucky pot.
Notably, children with disabilities from the Makalause Dream School, overseen by the association, actively participated alongside their peers.
Additionally, fun games such as yogurt feeding, needle threading, and water balloon passing were organized for both youth and adults.
The festival fostered a sense of camaraderie and recognition among village children and those involved in the association's programs.
Enthusiastic participation from around hundred children was complemented by the attendance of over a hundred spectators, adding to the festive atmosphere.
