Issa Hilal Al Hazami, Chairman of Sharjah Sports Council indicated that the initiative is in cooperation with the SPSA, and it is one of the encouraging initiatives on the importance of following prevention and safety methods that contribute to the safety of the target groups.  Al Hazami added that SSC and the clubs play an important role in implementing the visions and directives of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohamed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, and the follow-up of Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and Chairman of Sharjah Executive Council.

Abdullah Hussain Al Ali, Director of Support Services Department at Sharjah Sports Council pointed that "Our Clubs Are Safe" project comes with various initiatives that implement SSC strategies to obtain the internationally recognised Quality Management System (QMS), whereas applying standards and requirements for safety is one of the aspects that fall within the quality process.
