The University of Melbourne, known for its vibrant campus life and strong school spirit, needed a way to amplify enthusiasm during the upcoming Intercollegiate Sports Carnival. With the event bringing together students from all faculties, the university sought giveaways that would boost school spirit and create an energetic atmosphere. To achieve this, they decided to order 700 custom hand clappers, featuring their university logo. The hand clappers were distributed at the entrance of the sports dome, and students were thrilled to receive them. As their sports teams scored points, students enthusiastically clapped and cheered, adding a layer of excitement and energy to the event. View University of Melbourne website
