Suhail Bin Butti Al Maktoum was assigned Secretary

General, and Ali Mesry Al Dhahiri, Executive Director of

This meeting coincided with the appointment of Al Falasi

sectors and contributes to achieving the goals of the

Federation, which aims to organise student competitions

to discover talent at a young age and take the best 1 per

cent of sports talent in schools and universities to

national tournaments. The Federation is looking forward

to increasing interest in physical education in schools by

placing it among educational priorities, and encouraging

after-school sports activities, in addition to providing

students with the necessary support to enter the sports

sector as athletes, administrators, referees, journalists,

or researchers, each based on the skills and

qualifications that they possess.
