In a strategic move orchestrated by His Highness Shaikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa, First Deputy President of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports, President of the General Sports Authority, and President of the Bahrain Olympic Committee, the Bahraini youth handball team is set to receive pivotal support. This development is part of the ongoing "Making Champions" initiative, a comprehensive program designed to bolster the national teams' preparation and performance. The youth handball team will benefit from an exclusive training camp, gearing up for their participation in the inaugural Gulf Youth Games hosted by the United Arab Emirates from April 16 to May 2, 2024.
On this significant occasion, His Excellency Mr. Ali Isa Ishaqi, President of the Bahrain Handball Federation, expressed profound gratitude towards His Highness Shaikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa. His Highness's unwavering support for the youth handball team underscores a commitment to enhancing the sporting prowess of Bahraini teams on regional and international stages. This support is a testament to the Olympic Committee's dedicated efforts to elevate the competitive edge of Bahrain's national teams.
His Excellency also lauded the Secretary-General of the Olympic Committee, His Excellency Mr. Fares Mustafa Al-Kooheji, for his diligent implementation of the "Making Champions" program and his relentless pursuit of teams that exemplify honor and excellence. Ishaqi is optimistic that this strategic support will culminate in triumphant outcomes at the Gulf Youth Games, potentially securing the gold medal and further solidifying Bahrain's esteemed position in handball across the Gulf, Arab, and international arenas.
The "Making Champions" program, which extends its benefits to six sports federations including the Handball Federation, aims to amplify Bahrain's prospects of clinching the gold medal at the Gulf Youth Games, signaling a bright future for Bahraini handball.
