TAGT Tournament
In the Quadrangular tournament in 1977 in Ndola and Lusaka we(USC members) had an opportunity of having close relations with the members of Metro S.C. and had discussions to have sports ties between two clubs. In 1978 Union traveled to Lusaka with the invitation of Metro S.C. to play cricket, volleyball and tennis and the following year Metro S.C. visited Daressalaam from the invitation of Union S.C.
This move prompted other clubs in East and Central Africa to join the group and in 1979 a sponsor Babubhai Tarmohamed from Nairobi donated the trophy. Earlier the tournament was known as Tarmohamed Muslim Trophy but latter on it changed to Tarmohamed Abdulghani Tournament whereby five clubs participated. The participating clubs were-:
1. Metro S.C. – Lusaka2. Mpingwe S.C. – Blantyre
3. Union S.C. – Daressalaam
4. Universal S.C. – Harare
5. Universal S.C. – Nairobi
The first tournament was hosted by Metro S. C. in Lusaka in 1980 and moved into venue rotations which resulted to 13 tournaments to have been played until 1990 which eventually came to standstill.
3 times hosted in Lusaka(1980, 1983 and 1987)
3 times hosted in Harare(1981, 1985 and 1988)
3 times hosted in Blantyre(April 1982, April 1986 and1990)
