Four secondary schools fully participated in Bor town competition with a fifth private school, Alliance High, only involved Tuesday to challenge final losers, Malek SS, after championship was declared. Bor Secondary school is the champion of these preparatory matches.
Malek SS defeated Werkok SS by 4-0 last Thursday. Bor SS beat Dr. John Garang SS in Twic East by 2-0. The final match, between Bor SS and Malek SS ended in penalties by 4-2 in later’s favor. Bor SS was declared the champion just before Alliance High School, a privately owned one by Dr. John Garang Institute students in Bor held Malek to a 1-1 draw on Tuesday.
Pibor SS, suited in Juba, Ngundeng SS, Fangak, Atar, Ayod and other schools suited in Malakal but officially belonging to Jonglei state, will send best players to Bor early December, 2009 to join state team, Abel Manyuon, director general state ministry of education told the Malek and Alliance teams on Tuesday.
Mr. Manyuon pledges that a neutral body will do the selection to get quality players for national tournament.
Volleyball and basketball teams are also going be selected based on the recent competitions.
The state sport teams, according to officials, will be camped in Bor weeks before the tournament could started to monitor their health and diet.
Challenges like lack of organized football pitch and medication during playing hours are some difficulties still hooking sport activities in Bor, the capital of Jonglei state but government says it is keen to promote constructive leisure.

Mr Thon you have nothing to write on the media, this people are crap, rubbish, criminal, and killers who look good on the broad day light but dangerous at night. Get this horribel images of cattle rider off this site. If this could be what they believe in or part of their daily lifestyle it could be great, but the evil heart of killers is covered by those shirts. Your images is well known for the negative activities don’t pretend to blindfold the World.

it is really very exciding to read if not to hear from Bor, that my fellow brothers are still showing ebullience in sport and i hope that their bona fides to soccer will still be high as it use to be in places like Kakuma Refugee Camp. Otherwise i would like to congratulate the players and the administration of Jongulei to officiate such events, sport is a part of school curricullum and for student to be motivated towards their studies then they need to participate in various sports so that they pursued their goals.
sport is an intrinsic motivator to an individual but it depend somewhat on an individual to take it as an extrinsic factor to himself/herself base on how he/she rate the type of sport he/she is undertaking. I would like to wish you all the best in continuing with soccer and not to wane it away.

Dear Logic dogs and Thieling,
Bark as much as you need but last you will curse the day you were born and I am really meaning it guys.Otherwise you have to look out before 2011 and apologize Dinka Bor community as well as Dinka communities.There will be a ground in which we shall forgive you and remember what goes up comes down.
Sorry,there is no a day and it will never ever happen for Dinka Bor to compete with useless Equatorians in Equatoria and I promise.What were they and what are they at the movement?Is it because we have liberated them from their masters Arabs who used to fucked ladies from Equatoria day and night or what then?
Equtorians are known for only one thing in Southern Sudan as well as Sudan at large and they will never ever change for ever and ever.They are really known for hunting rats and grasshoppers.I would have vomited if I had taken tea this morning for I have mentioned grasshoppers and rats.They are for cats in Bor and not human being.
I am ready to defend Dinka Bor community though they called me a man of tribalism,I know very well that I am not,but constant dripping of water swears a stone.I am too tired of Equtorians and Nuer community.I tried to turn deaf ears to their day today comments but they don,t want to change.
If Logic dog and my house boy Thieling are not mad they would have not talked against pure hearted and hard hearted people of Dinka Bor.
Anyway,it is something normal and usual that if the child cries for razor blade then you have to give it to him or her.

thieleling:
Your post informs on the inability of some to engage topical issues.
Why in God’s name did you respond to this news headline with total non-sequiturs having nothing to do with the facts related?
Non-sequitur arguments are a form of distraction in which you substitute off-point hogwash by changing the subject.
Your post is a non-sequitur because it does not follow logically from the subject-matter.
Your post is also a strawman, because it does not address the matter at hand, but rather tries to attack a claim never made.
It is a fallacious form of argument, meaning it is not valid, and does not need to be addressed.
The only reason for addressing it – would be that the person making the fallacious argument does not know any better, and requires to be talked to like a child.
You really have the attention span of a fruit-fly.
Contrary to popular belief Dr. John Garang is from Dinka Twic-east, NOT Bor. The Twic Dinka are a seperate county from Dinka Bor, and speak a different dialect, with different norms and principles.
Confusing Dinka Twic-east with Dinka-Bor, would be akin to confusing the Gawar Nuer for the Lou Nuer.
Dr. John Garang, Akuot Atem De Mayem, and Arok Thon Arok came from Dinka Twic-east, whilst Kerubino Kwanyin Bol is from Dinka Twic-west in Bahr el Ghazal. Even Nyuon Bany’s mother was Dinka Twic-east.
Dinka Twic-east is a reclusive, peaceful and principled community- it has NEVER embarked on an attack on other tribes, and it does NOT embroil itself on the accusations entailed in your article against Dinka Bor.
Ps: Should you feel compelled to rubbish Garang’s home, please address (Twic-east). Do NOT confuse Dinka Twic-east with Dinka Bor!
