10/29/25, 11:42 AM Ministry of Sports showcases its efforts in service development and bureaucracy elimination
satisfaction with these services is projected to reach 91% in 2025, a metric that clearly underscores the
positive impact of these institutional reforms on the experience of both athletes and service users.
At the meeting, the Ministry team also showcased prominent initiatives to support Emirati athletes on
their journey toward excellence and international achievement, including the Talent Committee Platform,
a unified digital database for identifying and nurturing talent across various sports disciplines. The
platform connects athletes with federations and clubs, using advanced AI tools and specialised
assessments to evaluate performance, thereby enhancing the efficiency of talent selection and
development.
The improvement of sports leave services has also accelerated athlete enrollment in national support
programmes such as the UAE Committee for Talent and Sports Support and the Emirates Elite Sports
Committee, streamlining access to local and international training camps which has positively impacted
the readiness of national athletes and their ability to achieve outstanding representation in global
competitions.
To reinforce the Zero Bureaucracy approach, the Ministry regularly organises service development
workshops, innovation competitions and recognition programmes. Notable efforts include advancing
policies and regulations via updating the Service Level Agreement, revisions to the Sports Leave
Regulations and incorporating Zero Bureaucracy as standard in the Sports Federations Governance
Manual, fostering a lasting culture of excellence and administrative transformation.
These efforts have already delivered measurable national impact. Alongside service users’ higher
satisfaction rates, the National Talent Committee Platform recorded a strong start in its first assessment
cycle with 1,169 athletes creating profiles, 370 submitting applications, 126 being invited for testing and
101 athletes from 22 sports disciplines participating, bringing the total number of elite athletes to 92 to
date. These outcomes underscore the success of the Zero Bureaucracy approach in strengthening the
sports ecosystem, empowering national talent and accelerating the path of Emirati athletes to the world
stage.
The Ministry’s team affirmed that the next phase will focus on expanding digital transformation in sports
services, advancing institutional performance indicators through AI and enhancing collective effort
among local and federal sports entities to build a more efficient, sustainable sports sector and establish
the UAE’s sports service model as an example of government excellence in the UAE.
