“We have new experiences and lessons. Maybe there is a signal problem, but there is an exciting football field and it is more fun playing football here. And here you can also learn to manage time, get up early, track, do your assignments, quizzes, then more material that makes you sleepy and it’s very tiring. I personally, and representing other friends, want to thank the lecturer’s assistant, GWUF, and related lecturers who have given us the knowledge that is very useful for us all” said one representative of University of Riau students when met at the location of the activity.
