Shandong University's School of Life Sciences held a sports day at the Qingdao Campus on April 24 to enrich students' extracurricular life and boost its comprehensive development.

Aiming to encourage more students to participate in outdoor activities and keep healthy, the sports event included eight new games such as hula hooping, tug of war, and mixed relays.

During the games, the participants worked hard together and had a good time.

In the most popular game—tug of war, players gave it their all to help their teams win while onlookers cheered them on.

The sports day has been held for five years since 2018 and has grown in popularity among students. It has become a famous athletic event for students and faculty to communicate, strengthen their bodies, and cement their relationships.
