For the first time since the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime, the Yethrib District is holding a multi-village soccer tournament to commemorate the substantial progress that has been made in regards to security and stability in the Salah ad Din province. The tournament is expected to run nightly through, July 12th, and will pit over 24 teams from the district in sporting competition against each other for the much-coveted championship trophy.
