Existence of Sports Club

The Masoomeen Sports Club came into existence in 1985 with the opening of the new Mosque in Kinshasa. It was perhaps the youngest Club of our community where volleyball, cricket, table-tennis, badminton and tennis were being played.

The Volleyball team under the captainship of Salim Bhalloo, organized regular practice sessions and friendly matches with other clubs. It also took part in interclub volleyball competitions in Kinshasa. Cricket was played on seasonal basis - between March and September. Chances for competition were limited as there were only two cricket teams in Kinshasa. Nevertheless, spearheaded by the Captain Rizwan Rawji, the team was full of enthusiasm and the players just loved to play cricket.
