Please "compensate" our players

I wanted to write this long time ago, but time everything caught up with me, so here we are. I'm writing this early enough before the games resume next week. I believe in every little someone does to an institution should receive some kind of appreciation. That includes what our tireless sportsmen and women do on the pitch for this great institution. Some go in full force, and in the long run get injured, just to make sure that we have the trophies for this college. But what do they receive after doing everything that there is in participating and winning trophies? From what I saw last year, it was just a few claps and that's it. 'They' will say "you did well, and we would like to encourage others especially the first years to join various games." then the players will be given the trophies to take photos with, after which the trophies will be returned to the games office....and you will remain with those pictures. chapter closed.

My issue here is not to get lots of money into the participants pockets, but just a little bit of appreciation of what they undergo when they are on the pitch. From my little knowledge of psychology, this can act as a prime motivator into winning many more trophies for Kenya Medical Training College, Nyeri campus.
