6/20/25, 8:50 AM UAE Ministry of Sports launches ‘Talent Committee Platform’ - Emirati Times
performance data, digital governance tools, and institutional coordination to create an agile and
transparent national ecosystem for athletic talent development.

Dr. Al Falasi said the launch marks a major milestone in building a smart and sustainable sports system,

and “the platform supports early-stage talent identification through structured development pathways,
digital governance, and partnerships. It connects schools, academies, clubs, and federations, creating a

national framework for performance enhancement and athlete discovery.”

The initiative supports the National Sports Strategy 2031, particularly in increasing the number of Emirati
athletes qualifying for the Olympic Games. “Our priority is to establish a sustainable national system to

identify and develop talent to the highest level of competitive performance,” the Minister added.

The platform is currently in a pilot phase and will be officially launched in July 2025. In this initial phase, 58
talented athletes across 13 different sports have been selected by national federations and scouts based
on their performance in events like the UAE School Games. Their performance will be tracked and

evaluated digitally through the platform.
