THE EAGERLY a waited Sonali Othith UK Masters is returning to Hackney for what promises to be another sizzling event.
The invitation-only veterans football tournament is among the oldest in the UK Bangladeshi community and has a longstanding tradition of highly entertaining football.
This year promises to be no less exciting, and teams from across the country will lock horns to see who can dethrone current kings NFA Leeds. The northern powerhouses are the first and only non-London winners of this prestigious trophy.
Sonali Othith Chair Jamal Uddin commented, “We welcome all teams, all supporters and thank the community, including our sponsors, for helping bring back this great spectacle and great community tradition.”
Secretary Joynal Abdun Miah added, “The Masters pits the best against the best, and this year we look forward to kickstarting another summer of great football.”
