SUMMARY:Spree 18
LOCATION:BITS Pilani KK Birla Goa Campus\, Goa
DESCRIPTION:<p>India's largest intercollegiate sports and entertainment fes
 tival\, Spree\, set to take place between 23rd and 25th March 2018\, has b
 een a hit ever since its inception 12 years ago\, with each year only rais
 ing the bar of quality higher. This year the number of participants is exp
 ected to cross 2500\, thus providing a stiff competitive quality to each o
 f the sporting events - football\, basketball\, cricket\, volleyball\, bad
 minton\, tennis\, squash\, table tennis\, carrom\, chess\, powerlifting an
 d kabaddi. Colleges from Mumbai\, New Delhi\, Pune\, Jaipur\, Hyderabad\, 
 Indore and so on send their most athletic students to compete for the laur
 els and the heavy monetary incentives of Spree. The desire to be named Spr
 ee Champions for a sport resounds intensely on the competition grounds\; l
 eaving all onlookers mesmerized by the show of athletic proficiency.<br />
 \n<br />\nIn keeping with its pledge to stand apart from all other sport g
 atherings\, Spree has kept synchronism with the evolving nature of sports 
 by including off beat events like Ultimate Frisbee\, Kho Kho\, Kabaddi\, T
 ug of War\, Pool\, Gully Cricket and Futsal. Further\, the festival also h
 as a wide range of social initiatives under its letterhead\, like Udaan\, 
 the Spree Marathon and the ‘Act to Inspire’ campaign. Udaan\, organize
 d by Spree in collusion with NGO Nirmaan on the 25th of February\, was for
  the benefit of the specially abled children. Various sporting events\, wo
 rkshops and talks by celebrities convert the 3 days of Spree as a source o
 f happiness for the less fortunate. The Spree Marathon of 18th March\, in 
 association with Diageo\, will be conducted in Panjim and is a 10km run in
  support of the “Don’t Drink and Drive” campaign. The "Act to Inspir
 e” campaign\, initiated in the year 2013\, has Spree working with CRY fo
 r organizing blood donation camps and Clean-Up drives\, in cities where pr
 e-Spree elimination are conducted.<br />\n<br />\nSpree also provides a st
 age for sportsmen to deliver motivational speeches and share their journey
  in sports. This year's guests\, award-winning cricket umpire Simon Taufel
  and Olympic gold-medallist Abhinav Bindra\, add to a rich legacy of sport
 s stars at Spree. Several interesting workshops related to sports are also
  conducted\, that provide a crash course in a component of a sport\, say d
 ribbling in football. Finally\, Indian EDM artist and crowd favourite Nucl
 eya will handle the console on the second night.<br />\n<br />\nThus Spree
 \, BITS Pilani Goa comes across as a complete package: a reputed festival 
 with high standards for its sporting events\, but an equal fulfilment of i
 ts responsibility towards society. With great entertainment throughout the
  fest coupled with all the sporting brilliance on offer\, there shall be n
 o dull moments in Spree 2018. Glory awaits!<br />\n<br />\nFacebook : http
