A 68-player snooker tournament in Kunduz has concluded with champions decided in two competitive categories and Amo Club taking the overall team honours.

Twenty players competed in Category A, while another 48 entered Category B, giving the provincial competition a broad field drawn from Kunduz city and surrounding districts.

In the Category A final, Iqbal Hussaini defeated Jalal Hussaini 4–1 to claim the title.

Habibullah won the Category B final, defeating Haji Hussain 3–1.

The competition also produced an overall club ranking, with Amo Club finishing first and Dostan Club taking second place.

With 68 entrants divided across two levels, the tournament offered both established and developing players a competitive provincial platform rather than placing the entire field into a single bracket.
