The Ultimate Warriors’ League (UWL) : Intra-college annual sports fest of IIFT
The Ultimate Warriors’ League (UWL) is IIFT’s annual sports extravaganza, which was launched with full fervor for its seventh season with the tagline ‘Compete. Conquer. Celebrate.’ on October 31, 2014 by the Sports Committee, and the subsequently selected Organising Committee. On the lines of IPL, this year’s UWL, retained its earlier attractions of having firstly franchise biddings, in which three teams were grabbed by second year students, while the first year students bought one. The teams, erstwhile, were named Southern Stallions, Aryan Juggernauts, Eastern Gladiators, Mumbai Hawks. This was followed by the teams’ individual selection of their brand managers and consultants. November 2, a wintry foggy night could hardly freeze the bubbling excitement in the bloodstreams of players, as team owners, brand managers and consultants sat overnight post their grueling MBA schedule by day for an all-nighter (just for the record, it went from 12:30 am to 8:45 am), full of tension (and tears), stirring up cigarette smoke and controversies in the still air to bid for players to form their respective teams for a variety of sports and games, viz. cricket, volleyball, throw-ball, basketball, futsal, track racing, chess, poker, darts, badminton, tug of war, sports quiz. The brand managers sat with their respective owners to decide on branding strategies, to ensure their team gets the maximum brand recall and attention.

The Brevity Of Life
Yesterday, I was sitting on a chair it was the evening time, and then FM radio of my phone went off for few seconds. I thought, I should have an iPod . Then suddenly I realized that I have not used my iPod in last 3 months. And then, more things, i did not use my headphone in last 2 months, DVD player in last 1 month and many more.Now I can say that I bought that headphone just out of impulse, I have used it twice only in last 2 months So, what's wrong and where ...When I look at myself or my friends I can see it everywhere. We are not happy with what we have but all are stressed and not happy for the things we don't have. If You have a Santro, but you want City; You have a City, but you want Skoda. Just after buying a new phone, we need another one. Better laptop, bigger TV, faster car, bigger house, more money, and I means, these examples are endless.
