The Energy Cup 2023

In the organisation that I work, the Energy and Utility (E&U) is one of the business units in APAC strategic Business Unit. I belong to this BU. after covid, we are all looking for opportunity to connect with each other face to face. And that is when we got Bandhan coming right the corner. 

Each year, a special family function known as "Bandhan" takes place in my organisation, This is celebrated separately within individual business units. Bandhan serves as a celebration where employees have the opportunity to invite their family members to join in the festivities. It was not been celebrated for the last few years due to the pandemic and the lockdown. This year its decided that we need to have Bandhan celebrated.

Within the E&U business unit, an additional event called the "Energy Cup" has become a cherished tradition. The Energy Cup is a sports championship held exclusively for the employees of the E&U division. This year, the Energy Cup is set to be even more exciting as it becomes an integral part of the Bandhan celebrations.

The sports championship of the Energy Cup features three thrilling sports: cricket, badminton, and table tennis (TT). These sports provide an opportunity for employees to showcase their skills, team spirit, and competitive prowess. Participants from across the E&U business unit eagerly join forces, forming teams to compete for the coveted championship trophy.

The competition is intense, with all the directors of the E&U business unit forming their respective teams. The twelve competing teams this year include the Edwin Edwin Warriors, Fire Warriors, L4L Mavericks, L4L Eyes, Golden Tigers, EU Army, Hennai Kings, DS Challengers, Upstream Strikers, Power Connect, Upstream Spartans, and Royals. Each team brings their unique strengths, strategies, and camaraderie to the tournament, fostering an atmosphere of healthy competition and mutual respect.

The grand event is scheduled to take place at the picturesque Amoon Resort, located in Bangalore. The resort provides a perfect backdrop for the festivities, offering lush green surroundings, state-of-the-art sports facilities, and a comfortable ambiance for participants and their families.

As the Bandhan celebrations unfold, employees and their families will witness not only thrilling sports matches but also a sense of unity and togetherness. The event serves as a platform for employees to bond outside of the workplace, strengthening relationships, and fostering a sense of belonging within the E&U business unit.

With a blend of sportsmanship, teamwork, and the joy of family participation, the Energy Cup's inclusion in the Bandhan celebration promises a memorable and uplifting experience for all involved. As the teams compete, the atmosphere will be filled with cheers, laughter, and moments of triumph, creating lasting memories that will be cherished by the CGI E&U community. I am one of the organising members along with Raju, Renjith, Mansoor, Ashwini, Nayan and some others. We are helped by MOE an event management company in doing things right.

We are expecting around 2000 people to join us, including the family members of our members in the E&U BU. We also have a team from Chennai competing for the championship. I wish all of the success.
