Preparation for the 2013 National Sports Tournament in Houston: Jamati Involvement | I-Youth OnlineBy Sara Rehimi

It’s that time of the year again; the National Sports Tournament is just around the corner! Every year, Ismaili athletes from around the country come together and compete in a variety of sports, including basketball, flag football, cricket, and many more. This year, the National Sports Tournament will be held in Houston, Texas from January 18-21, 2013. The National Sports Tournament is not only a chance for athletes to showcase their talent, but also a place for Ismailis to meet new people and have fun with their spiritual brothers and sisters. In addition, it enforces a healthy lifestyle and encourages participants to continue playing sports even after the tournament is over. In order for the tournament to be a success, volunteers must get members of the Jamat to participate.
