President Dr Mohamed Muizzu inaugurated the newly developed futsal pitch in Alifu Dhaalu Atoll, Mandhoo yesterday, following an invitation from the island’s youth.
He received a warm welcome from residents and was accompanied by Vice President Hussain Mohamed Latheef, Cabinet Ministers, and senior officials from Government institutions and State-Owned Enterprises.
The project was initiated after the island’s youth requested during the President’s 8 October visit that a futsal pitch be completed by the end of November. The Maldives Transport and Contracting Company (MTCC) was commissioned to deliver the facility, which includes modern turf and full lighting, within a short timeframe.
To mark the inauguration, President Dr Muizzu joined a friendly futsal match alongside the Vice President and Cabinet Ministers, securing a 6–2 win against the Mandhoo team.
