The Sportzone held at the Events Arena Dulsco Village and organised by Gulf International Promotions as part of the Dubai Summer Surprises saw some exciting games on the final day.
In the Inter-Hotel football final the Mina Seyahi team, led by player of the tournament Housinne Boulzargue, managed to get the better of a strong Le Royal Meridien team 3-2.
