Teams like local clubs and Institutions, J&K Police, Para-Military Forces, Military and even side's from neighbouring states of Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Haryana are invited to send in their entries before November 15.
The tournament is being organised under the patronage of Raj Daluja, son of late Daswandi Ram Daluja.
Apart from trophies, mementos and attractive cash prizes, the winning team will pocket Rs 61,000, the runners-up team Rs 36,000, while the third and fourth-placed teams will get Rs 17,500 and Rs 7,500 respectively.
