Sports Tournament
Each year, CSA will hold several sports tournament with CSSA. It has become one of the most grand activities in CSA. Players and audiences all enjoy a great deal of fun.
Last year, we held basketball and badminton tournaments with CSSA in B term. It was brilliant. All games are exciting and players devoted themselves completely into the games, competing for the champions and the winning prize.
This year we will have basketball and badminton tournaments again in B term. Also, we plan to have soccer tournament in D term. Most players are still going to be members of CSA and CSSA, but faculty members and other students at WPI are also welcomed. There will be lovely prizes for the winners. So let's move on.

Dumpling Program
Dumpling Program is an organization that consists of families who have adopted children (now ranging from age 4 to 15) from China and WPI students. Most families knew little about their children's heritage, so we hold the workshop once or twice a term to share Chinese culture with them through interactive activities between Dumpling families and WPI students. Then the children come to know about and appreciate the culture of their birthplace through games, cooking events and all types of interactions with WPI students
The WPI CSA Dumpling Team has been hosting the Dumpling Program for 6 years now, and its success is the fruition of the generosity and carefulness of all the volunteers. All the Dumpling families have greatly appreciated the work of us WPI students
