MESSAGE FROM THE HEAD OF NATION, USA FSMA President - Aiyub Ali Asalaam Walaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barkatuhu FANCA is a Mini-Muslim world cup soccer tournament where all Fijian Muslims from five different na-tions, Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and USA play every two years. Once again FANCA 2016 is here. This year the prestigious FANCA tournament will be held in Fiji from October 12th to 16th at Prince Charles Park, Nadi. On behalf of FMSA USA, it gives me great honor and privilege to thank the hosting nation Fiji for providing the venue and arranging all the facilities that each five-nation requires during this jubilant tournament. FMSA USA board has worked tirelessly for the last two years to build both the main team and the masters at the timely manner by doing projects like food sale, mini magazine, soccer tournaments, Ghazal night and Quran Tilawat. The entire two year project was a very challenging and a hard earned work by my entire board. At this time, I am proud to announce that both our team’s main and masters are ready to take part in FANCA in Nadi. FANCA is not only about soccer, but it brings the people from five different nations together at one place where we all get reunited with friends and families. To add to this, a strong and powerful broth-erhood relationship is observed, and a positive atmosphere is created during this five-day event. I would like to wish all the five participating nations all the best and may the best team win and also not forgetting the FANCA board and officials who work very hard to put this event together. Thank you all. Jazakallah Haji Aiyub Ali - President FMSA USA
