When Jaipur doctors had a field day
An annual event, Doctors Premiere League, recently concluded at a city school’s stadium which saw Jaipur’s medical professionals trying their hands at cricket. After a month-long tournament that saw matches between 10 teams of male doctors and four teams of female doctors, the league concluded with a cultural evening and an after-party. Team Blue won the finale by defeating Team Red.
Dr Rajpreet Soni, one of the players of Team Blue, said, “We desperately look forward to playing in the league. None of us is an expert in this field but it is a great learning experience. And, it is a step forward towards healthy living. It is such a fun-filled league that brings together all the doctors.”
Dr Rimmie Shekhawat, the organiser of the event, said, “Most doctors have a hectic schedule where we are surrounded by patients and medicines. It even gets depressing at times. Such events allow us to take a break from our hectic schedules and help us de-stress.”
Dr Shivraj Singh said, “The purpose of this tournament was to break the monotony of our lives. We concluded it with some dance and music, and we totally loved it.”
