SPECIAL OLYMPICS – Special Olympics Bahrain is set to participate in the Special Olympics MENA Regional Equestrian Competition, organised by Special Olympics International-Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
The event is to be held in Al Ain, the UAE, from Sunday to August 28.
Special Olympics Bahrain are one of 11 delegations set to take part, with the others coming from Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco, Iraq, Tunisia, Iran, and hosts UAE.
The event, organised by Special Olympics UAE in collaboration with Special Olympics MENA, marks a qualitative step forward, given the significance of equestrian sports as one of the most prominent models of inclusive sports for elite Special Olympics athletes with intellectual disabilities.
