CESL Asia and Friends Sport Fun Day 2023 was once again an inspiring celebration of diversity and inclusion. Held at the Macau Federation of Trade Unions Workers Stadium, the event, now in its 7th edition, bringing together 22 entities and over 200 participants, raised MOP 125,000 in donations for the Macau Special Olympics (MSO) to support their outstanding sport educational programs.

As CESL Asia celebrates its 35th anniversary, the organization reiterates its dedication to maintaining an enduring partnership with MSO, with the aim of ensuring the sustained growth and advancement of inclusivity in our city.

CESL Asia and Friends Sport Fun Day 2023 showcased thrilling football and bocce tournaments, where teams from various collaborating entities and organizations competed alongside MSO athletes. The atmosphere was filled with skillful performances, enthusiasm, and a profound sense of camaraderie. The event provided invaluable insights into overcoming challenges, building confidence, and had a transformative impact.

The "Corporate Football Tournament" crowned the team from "MGM" as champions, while the "Golden Cup and Silver Plate Corporate Inclusive Bocce Tournament" was secured by the teams from "MdME Lawyers" and "Banco Nacional Ultramarino".
