Brimmed with youthful energy, camaraderie, and sportsmanship, exemplifying Kuwaiti spirit at its best, the tournament saw twenty teams competing in exciting traditional Kuwait card games each week, notably in "Hand" doubles and "Kout bo Sitta" playoffs. Each week, top achievers in Ooredoo's Ramadan "Ganjifa" Games received impressive rewards. Securing first position earned participants new iPhone 15 devices, while second-place winners walked away with two Samsung Galaxy S24 devices. Moreover, those claiming third place were rewarded with a collection of Samsung gadgets. Back by popular demand, Ooredoo's second season of "Ganjifa" Games for youth kicked off this year at the beginning of the holy month, after the games garnered significant interest from Ooredoo's audience last year, and the tournament achieved remarkable success in 2023 among the Kuwaiti youth community passionate about Ganjifa.
