Software AG Premier League '4 - Day Out

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is a proverb that well suits our current lifestyle. We @ Software AG, strongly believe that a balanced blend of work and recreation is the perfect way to keep the mind & soul refreshed. The Software AG Premier League (SPL) hosted the Outdoor Event on a Saturday, November 19, 2016. The event was held at Blue Lagoon, a resort located in the outskirts of the city.

The SPL exhibits 4 teams - Matadorz, Torpedos, Snipers and Zionz. A series of games that included Cricket, Volleyball, Throw-ball, and Swimming were scheduled and the competing teams were declared for the day.



CRICKET, the most popular sport in India, is one of the most exciting outdoor games that is enjoyed by everyone in Software AG. The 12-over match was a pulsating encounter right from the start and ended with a nail-biting victory. 



We had a wonderful team lunch followed by a relaxation to gear up for the second half of the day.

Next was the VOLLEYBALL. The players had a small warm-up session. Every single match, be it the qualifiers or the finals, were so close. Though winning was the goal, every single player enjoyed the game and their passion for the game was significantly evident.


The energy drained during the truly competing match was regained with a short evening break accompanied by coffee & snacks.

The last and final game of the day was SWIMMING. Getting into the waters after a long and tiring day was a blissful experience. Yet, it was not the time for the contestants to relax. Everyone gathered along the pool side to encourage the swimmers. With people calling out the names of their respective team members, the entire pool was full of energy and enthusiasm.

End of the day, we all got to witness the sportsmanship in each one of us. Every experience in life teaches us new things and helps us grow as a person. And when you get to learn while having fun, it’s a buy one, get one offer !!!
