¶ 01 Thank you, Hon. Minister. In Trincomalee District, many display their talents at high levels. Recently, Soranagal Al-Ameen Maha Vidyalaya won the 18th All-Island Football Championship. Many youths are excelling in cricket at age-group and school levels. Yet, there is still no fully facilitated stadium in the district. My question concerned McHeyzer Stadium; your position has been clarified.

¶ 02 Hon. Minister, players from Kinniya, Mutur, Thoppur, Kuchchaveli, Kantale and other parts of Trincomalee are performing at national levels. Is the Ministry engaging with schools to rehabilitate school grounds and make arrangements at school level?
