They will be competing for various prizes, including medals, plaques, and other prizes.” He added that this year’s occasion is not open to all as only invited clubs and the hosts will be allowed into the venue of the event. “From the three clubs that we have invited, we are expecting no less than 30 members each – that’s about 90 people and from our end, we cannot have less than 160 people, which makes it 250 people or more that we are expecting for the event,” he noted.
