Sharjah: Fast ‘A’ will meet National Paints in the football final of the Sharjah Labour Sports Tournament organised by the Sharjah Labour Standards Development Authority.

In the semi-finals, Fast ‘A’ defeated Civil Defence 1-0, while National Paints got the better of Sharjah Police 3-2 to set up a clash in the final.

Held every weekend at the Sharjah National Park area, there are more than 120 teams participating in this annual event that is scheduled to conclude next week.

The final ceremony will be attended by Salem Yousuf Al Qaseer, Chairman, Sharjah Labour Standards Development Authority and representatives of participating companies. “The plan is to expand this competition further next season as we can already see the fruits of such an initiative within the corporate sector,” Al Qaseer said.

“We will form a committee that will view the feedback from participating teams, and then we will decide on the best format to expand this competition for many more corporates and institutions housed within Sharjah,” he added.
