Looking towards the Fourth Edition
Area councillor Julius Mabumbo was chief guest on the final day. He expressed support for the continued development of the competition and pledged support towards the fourth edition.
For Hexaster football events, the conclusion of the third edition therefore marked both an ending and the beginning of preparations for another chapter.
