AMES INDOOR CUP 2018: Badminton Tournament was organized by Association of Mechanical Engineering Students (AMES) from 21st to 29th July. This indoor cup was conducted in social hall which is the best venue in Kathmandu University for conducting indoor games. And the indoor cup was scheduled for 4:00 to 5:30 PM which is the best time for all the students as this time does not affect the daily classes and academic activities.
Prof. Dr. Hari Prasad Neupane, Head of Department initiated the indoor cup with his wonderful speech. Also, he initiated the badminton tournament by playing the opening badminton game with Mr. Gyatabya Singh, Badminton Coordinator.
