Al Hamriyah Club to host two international sailing competitions

Sharjah 24: Al Hamriyah Cultural and Sports Club will hold the Al Hamriyah International Sailing Championship on April 26-27, 2025. The club will also host the inaugural global "Phygital" Modern Sailing Championship, which was recently founded by the UAE Sailing and Modern Rowing Federation.

Both races are part of the UAE Sailing Champion Series' third round, which is being hosted by the club.

The international sailing competition will involve national teams from Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, and Iran. Al Hamriyah Modern Sailing Team's training facility will host all three competitions.

Boosting local talents

Humaid Al Shamsi, Chairman of Al Hamriyah Club, emphasised the value of holding such an international championship in helping UAE-based players improve their talents via exposure to foreign competition.

Gratitude for national recognition

Al Shamsi thanked the UAE Sailing and Rowing Federation (SARF), led by Sheikh Ahmed bin Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Nahyan, for choosing Al Hamriyah as the venue of the first global "phygital" championship. He underlined that the event demonstrates the UAE's pioneering role in various areas.
