Dana Hassan Al Hamadi won bronze in the under-10 division, and Reem Al Jasmi won bronze in the under-12 division.

This accomplishment should serve as both inspiration and a call to action to keep things going in the right direction.
The President of the Club's Board of Directors congratulated the victorious players and urged them to continue their winning ways in future competitions. Al Shamsi stressed that elevating the players' skill level is a top priority in order to promote them to the national team, boost their worldwide rankings, and ultimately bring home international championships.
