On 25 June 2022, two basketball teams from UTAR named
UTAR 1 and UTAR 2, participated in the IPG TAR UC 3 on 3 Competition, a
basketball tournament jointly organised by IPG Malaysia (KL) and Tunku Abdul
Rahman University College (TARUC), Setapak Campus. The competition’s main
focus was 3-on-3 basketball rules and court ruling. It saw 56 teams from
various universities taking part in the competition, which was held at
Basketball TARUC, Setapak.
The tournament served as a platform for the UTAR
teams to train and showcase their skills, as they had not participated in
any tournaments for the last two years. The two UTAR teams were split into
four members each. Team UTAR 1 was unfortunately eliminated in the last 24,
missing out by only two points. Team UTAR 2, however, managed to emerge as 2nd
runner-up, winning a total of RM588, 20% of which was donated to the UTAR
Education Foundation to help needy students.
Overall, the tournament was a good opportunity for
the students to gain experience and exposure. It also served as a motivation
for them to train harder for the upcoming University Basketball League
(UBL). UTAR is proud of the participating teams, as they performed well and
gave their all.
