jumping won by rider Omar Al Marzooqi, which marked a new chapter for Emirati

athletes.

H.H. Sheikh Mansoor stressed that sustaining the success of the

national Olympic movement requires the collective efforts of all stakeholders —

including sports federations and organisations involved in Olympic affairs — to

ensure athletes receive the support and environment they need to excel and
uphold the UAE’s legacy of sporting excellence on the global stage.

The meeting also included the presentation of the International Olympic

Committee’s approval of the NOC General Assembly’s resolution to extend the

mandate of the Board of Directors for the 2024–2028 Olympic cycle.

The meeting also approved the NOC’s technical and administrative report for

2024, as well as its strategic vision and Olympic activity plan for the same period.

These approvals reaffirm the NOC’s active role as a prominent member of major

continental and international sports bodies and its commitment to supporting
events held under their umbrella, reflecting the UAE’s dedication to fostering

the Olympic spirit and promoting values of excellence, friendship, and respect.

The Assembly further ratified the NOC’s final accounts for the 2024 fiscal year, its

proposed budget for 2025, the audit report for 2024, and the preparation and
participation budget for Olympic events under the 2025 activity plan. In addition,

the financial and administrative reports of the UAE Sports Arbitration Centre were

approved.

During the meeting, Faris Mohammed Al Mutawa, Secretary-General of the NOC,
presented the latest amendments to the Olympic Charter, which were adopted on

30 January. These amendments represent a pivotal development in the history of

the Olympic movement, particularly with regard to participation process,

qualification pathways, and the rights to host and organise the Olympic Games —

while also expanding the role of National Olympic Committees in decisions
concerning host city selections.
