By the grace of Allah the Almighty North East Region were able to hold Khilafat Jubilee Football and Quiz competition. This was organised and ran by the Regional Nazim Sehat-e-Jismani, Hadi Malik and his team. The competition took place on 7th March 2009 in Bradford at an external venue. The event ran simultaneously along with Quiz competition.

Eight teams participated in the quiz competition, these teams comprised of Bradford North and South, Huddersfield North and South, Sheffield, North West and North East Regional Team. Each team comprised of seven players inclusive of subsitutes.

Regional Qaid North East, Yousaf Aftab Sahib and Deputy Regional Qaids Adam Walker Sahib and Mansoor Khan Sahib were also present and supervised the final.

After a very close and well fought final, North East Regional Team won against Bradford South. This competition was also a preparatory event for the upcoming Regional and National Ijtema.

Alhamdulillah the event was enjoyed by all and was well received allowing spectators to learn from this experience and increase in their bond of brotherhood.

The event was finished with silent prayer led by Regional Qaid North East, Yousaf Aftab Sahib. May Allah continue to shower his Mercy and Blessings upon MKA UK and the Region.
