All eyes will be on the Shree Cutchi Leva Patel Samaj Six-A-Side cricket tournament this weekend.
The event will feature five pools (A, B, C, D and E) running from Friday night to June 2.
The Friday fixtures will be held at Samaj grounds but Saturday and Sunday fixtures will be at both Samaj and Ngara Sports Club.
The final match will be played at the Samaj ground on Sunday, starting at 5.30 pm.
The tournament is sponsored by Crown Paints, Karsan Ramji and Sons, Ndovu Aggregates and Purple Dot International Ltd.
Teams to look out for this year include Kanbis Blue, Stray Lions, Maruti Marble (India) and Cutchi Leva 'A'.
SCLPS Youth League secretary Rahul Vishram said the top two teams from each group will be picked to create a table of 10.
The 10 will then be classified as per their run rate.
He added: “The last four of the ten teams will face off in the pre-quarters. The best two will join the top six in the quarters.”
Group 'A' has BFF, Sikh Union 'A', Swamibapa 'B', Samaj School and Kanbis Blue.
Group 'B' features Maruti Marble, Cutchi Leva 'B', Sir Ali, Gymkhana 'A' and Cutchi Leva 'D'.
