Madrasahs in attendance included:
•Mazahirul Uloom London

•Jamiatul Ummah
•Hafs Academy
•Lantern of Knowledge

Overall, the London Islamic School (LIS) won most of the trophies. After ten successful years, the organisers plan further developments, including a girls school sports day Madrasah championships to take place in the future.

Founder Arif Abdurrahmaan commented, “The space for physical education activities at Madrasahs is limited and over the years this championship event has enriched the lives of the students while encouraging interaction with other young people, which is essential for their personal growth and development, mental health and well-being along with academic excellence.”
