There were prizes for the teams that excelled at the tournament. Community members came out in numbers to enjoy the games, as well as the performances by various local artists.
The aim was to keep the youth occupied over the busy long weekend, because it was said that many accidents happen during the December 16 holiday, especially due to the abuse of alcohol and drugs among the youth.
