Muslim girls and women from Hackney are to star in a new sporting event celebrating Islamic culture.
The National Girls Eid Cup Festival will see Muslim girls and women from all over the country competing in a range of events including athletics, handball and clay pigeon shooting.
The festival, which is being put on by Leyton Orient Community Sports Programme, will also feature Islamic arts shows and food stalls – and a tour of the site for the London Olympics.
The event is being held at the SCORE sports complex, 100 Oliver Road, on Saturday.

Write your comment here…Hello,
I'm doing research on terrorism, and I've put together a pre-survey questionnaire that I'm circulating in order to get feedback on what a non-biased (non-western, non-white) survey might look like. The final survey will go out later this year.
The survey can be accessed at johnmaszka.com/SURVEY.html
Would you post it, and possibly circulate it? I’m very interested in incorporating the views of women, non-whites, and people living outside of America and Western Europe.
I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
Take care,
John Maszka
