University of Sunderland dedicated players

We departed at 5:30am and reached at MeadowBank Sport Centre at 8:40am. After settling down the players, the participants all went to the different sessions respectively to cheer on their friends, while some others preferred to go to the city centre to experience the beautiful and historical city. 

It had been a great day. Our sports player had did their best. Unfortunately, this year we did not win any gold...except BADMINTON MIXED DOUBLE!!! Sabina Lim and Jason Yong. They won a gold medal!!

Everyone was tired in the end. The bus departed from Edinburgh at 6:15pm. Due to some problem, we only arrived Sunderland safely 11:30pm. It was undeniably another great event.
