The official opening of the Late Pa Modou Faal memorial football tournament organised by Kerr Mama Sports Committee and sponsored by Gambian US-based referee Baboucarr A.C. Jallow is set to kick off with a Super Cup between Masoseh FC of Kerr Mama and German Boys of Fass Omar Saho on Saturday 20th August 2022 at the Alhagie Gabbi Soseh Mini Stadium in Kerr Mama at 4pm.

The purpose of the tournament, according to the committee, is to remember a fallen hero, legend and a former journalist who contributed massively in promoting sports and football in particular in Upper Nuimi.
