Introduction
The Ramadan football league is an amateur football league for Muslim players. It is held during the month of Ramadan, when Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. The league provides a way for Muslim players to continue playing football during Ramadan, while also respecting the religious requirements of the month.
History
The Ramadan football league was first founded in 2010 in London. It has since expanded to other cities in the United Kingdom, as well as to other countries around the world. The league is currently run by a volunteer organization called the Ramadan Football League Association.
Rules
The rules of the Ramadan football league are similar to the rules of regular football. However, there are some modifications to accommodate the fasting requirements of the month. For example, matches are played in the evening, after sunset. Players are also allowed to break their fast during matches if they need to.
Benefits
The Ramadan football league has a number of benefits for Muslim players. It allows them to continue playing football during a month when they would otherwise be unable to. It also helps them to stay fit and healthy during Ramadan. Additionally, the league provides a sense of community for Muslim players, who can connect with other players who share their faith.
