More than 60 workers representing 10 different internal departments and production units registered for the event.
Throughout the multi-round schedule, participating rosters adhered strictly to tournament guidelines and a cooperative sporting ethos. Players focused on maintaining discipline and mutual respect while pursuing victory on the court. This structured framework allowed athletes from disparate plant divisions to test their conditioning and court awareness under competitive pressure.
