Basketball tournament for the Haredi community

The City of Jerusalem is sponsoring a basketball tournament specifically for the haredi community. Registration costs 50nis per person. All you need to do is put together a team of at least 7, fill out a registration form, and everything else will be taken care of by them - referees, organization, uniform shirts and gyms will be provided by the city.

While I would think that this initiative is specifically for the days of bein hazmanim, no tournament dates are mentioned in the flyer.

I wonder how many will register and compete. This can be a good initiative, to get people physically active, to keep people mentally active and not bored during a long bein hazamnim, and in general to let people see that playing with a ball does not mean the end of the world is on its way.

I wonder how quickly the condemnations will come, and when the yeshivas will ban their students from participating, and when people will start asking in shidduch investigations if the bochur had participated in these tournaments.
