The preliminary rounds of the championship will commence on Sunday, followed by the elimination rounds for individual competitions starting at 1:00 PM and team competitions at 4:00 PM. The finals will be held on Monday.
Bodor Salah Al Shukr, the administrative manager of the archery team at Sharjah Women's Sports Club, expressed confidence in the team's preparedness. The final lineup, comprising eight players chosen from a pool of 40, is set to compete in both the recurve and compound bow categories.
Al Shukr noted that the team underwent a rigorous two-month preparation period, including participation in internal and external tournaments, as well as two intensive training camps.
