Sharjah Children is keen to provide a stimulating environment that fosters a spirit of competition and cooperation among participants, contributing to building self-confidence and promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Al Zarouni added that the festival goal is not limited to entertainment, but extends to instilling a spirit of competition, measuring the level of players, and monitoring and attracting talented individuals to clubs, in cooperation with partners in sports institutions.
Sharjah Children appreciates SSC support for this event, and extends thanks to Al Dhaid Cultural and Sports Club for their generous hosting.
Through its sports programmes, Sharjah Children seeks to harness the energies of its members and develop their capabilities within its fully integrated, state-of-the-art facilities, under the supervision of specialised trainers.
