Opening ceremony on March 10
The opening ceremony of the final round of the Bangladesh Youth Games has been deferred by a day to March 10 due to Bangladesh Premier League champions Abahani's international engagement on March 7.
“Due to Abahani's AFC Cup match against New Radiant Club on March 7 at the Bangabandhu National Stadium, it will not be possible to fix the stage and decorate the stadium within a day ahead. That's why the opening ceremony has been deferred from March 9 to March 10,” said a statement from Bangladesh Olympic Association yesterday.
The statement also assured that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina would inaugurate the youth games, which will feature 21 disciplines. However, the football event will start a few days earlier at the Birshreshtha Shaheed Mostafa Kamal Stadium while the semifinals and final will take place at the BNS.
