For over 50 years, the local teams have been locking horns every November. They play for pride, a coveted trophy, and, very often, a shot at the league championship.

As we know, Ramadan is a sacred month for Muslims. We fast from sunrise to sunset and spend the day performing as many good deeds, voluntary prayers and Qur'an reading as possible.
