Sunil Prajapati said playing sports prevents drug use in teens by boosting mental, social, and psychological advances. Youth sports participation enables teens to spend time with friends in a safe environment and obtain social skills that are likely to last a lifetime.

Eight teams from Akhnoor, Bagh-e-Bahu, Sarore, Mishriwala, Ratnal, Kalakote, and Bari Brahmna are participating in the tournament.
