On September 24th, UCSI University proudly celebrated the achievements of our SUKIPT athletes, who set a new record by finishing fourth overall and claiming the top spot among private universities in the 2024 competition. They excelled across multiple disciplines, with an impressive medal haul in swimming, basketball, badminton, and track and field. 

The swimming team led the charge with 13 gold, 6 silver and 3 bronze medals, while our basketball teams secured gold in the men's category and silver in the women's. Badminton contributed with a gold and a bronze medal, and track and field added two silver medals to the tally. The volleyball team also showed great promise by reaching the quarterfinals.

To commemorate their success, the athletes were treated to a sumptuous dinner featuring exquisite dishes prepared by Le Quadri Kuala Lumpur. The celebration was also graced by esteemed University officials, including the vice-chancellor and president Prof Emerita Datuk Ts Ir Dr Siti Hamisah Tapsir, the council chairman Dato' Peter Ng and deputy vice-chancellor of academic and internalisation (Kuala Lumpur Campus) Prof Datuk Dr Rohana Yusof.
