There is good news to celebrate tonight. That’s because a team of young athletes has made its mark in the Hoops on the Beach Basketball Tournament played in Cancun.

The teams derived from Ahmadiyya Basketball League, competed in four categories and brought home gold and silver medals, besting other teams from bigger and mightier countries.

The young players returned home quietly but were today hosted to a feast. News Five’s Duane Moody has reported.

Naveed Mangla, President, Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at, Belize said they had over a hundred youth in the league that runs from January up to May.

"But this year," Mangla said, "we expanded it to over four hundred youth where we had three categories of U-thirteen, U-seventeen and U-twenty-one. We had youth coming from not only Belize, but this year we had about three or four teams coming from Mexico also.”
