A day in the life of the Salwan sports field

Long before the first class begins, the Salwan field is already alive. Athletes arrive at sunrise for drills, coaches set out cones in the morning light, and the day's first house rivalry quietly takes shape on the track.

What spectators see on Sports Day is only the final chapter. Behind every win is months of early mornings, small setbacks and the kind of quiet discipline that sport teaches better than almost anything else.
