All new bosses want new and larger offices. One of the new bosses of a very popular sport is no different. He had requested for a huge office and to find space for these constructors have to push to the limit, meaning that the desks of other officers have to be pushed closer to the toilets. Amongst these officers is a lady officer who had been the talk of the town at recent happenings of this body.

DROPPED
There is a big furor over the selection of a player to a competition abroad where the game is played with an oval shaped ball. A big inquiry is now on regarding this incident. It is alleged that two officials who had selected this player in the first instance had been bribed to include the player at the rate of Rs. Two Lakhs per person. This happened before the player was selected of course. Sadly he was dropped from the tour party.

THE BIG PROBLEM
The Sports Boss’s table is full of nominees for the fast approaching Games. A lot of these requests are for Observers! It has been noticed that several who go as Sport Observers do not file even a single report after returning from the games that they had witnessed in the past. This has caused a Big Problem! What can be done to sort this our?

SUPER TWO WHEELERS
All eyes are on the fast approaching games due to begin in the first week of February in a neighbouring country. Officials of the sport that is ridden on wheels is supposed to have purchased 25 two wheelers at the rate of Rs. 25 Lakhs each. This news has reached the Sports Boss and he is keen to find out on what basis these two wheelers were purchased. The normal procedure is through tenders. Has this practice been followed?

PROBLEMS GALORE
Two top players in the game played by shuttles were dropped from the said Games as they had not attended trials but had hoped to be in their respective tour squads purely on their past performances. However due to pressure from the top these two players have now been included in the tour squads. This has posed more problems on the Sports Boss!

CRYING FOUL
Over to the sport where the ball is volleyed over a net! This time a physiotherapist has been overlooked in favour of an assistant manager for the big event in February. The players are crying foul. What the players say is that the physiotherapist is more important than an assistant manager. After all there is a manager to see to the other aspects of the sport at the event.
