A Muslim hockey tournament was shut down yesterday after a large brawl erupted, apparently over religious tensions. The ball hockey tournament was organized by the BC Muslim Association, which is a Sunni Muslim organization. Ahmed Buksh says his 20 and 21 year old sons - who aren't Sunni Muslims - were playing on one of the teams. He says players and spectators attacked his sons when one of them got knocked in the mouth by a stick.He says even before the tournament, some people said his sons shouldn't play. Police were called and the event was shut down. No serious injuries reported.
Brings a tear to my eye. Muslims assimilating into Canadian culture and brawling at hockey games!
