The Arabian Gulf Football Cup opened the doors of goodness to Iraqi sports, as the picture changed completely, and Mesopotamia became a demand from international sports bodies and organizations that expressed their desire to organize sporting events and championships on Iraqi lands, and these are good indicators that explain the true meaning and role of sport. What the brothers presented is speechless. As described, the AFC has begun to request the organization of football tournaments.
Yesterday, the Minister of Youth and Sports, Ahmed Al-Mubarqa, confirmed that the visit of Hussein Al-Musallam, President of the International Swimming and Water Sports Federation, to Baghdad paved the way for great future cooperation with sports and educational institutions in Iraq. The International Federation and the participation of the Ministry of Youth, the Ministry of Education, the Game Federation and the Olympic Committee, with the aim of eradicating swimming illiteracy and disseminating it as an educational curriculum in schools. We also find that a number of countries in the region since the end of the “Basra Gulf” began to move and hold seminars and conferences in which they discuss the status of sports in these countries Have we thought about holding such symposiums or similar conferences? All that appeared was the “Sketty” meeting.
And on the memory of the Swimming Federation, since the postponement of the electoral general assembly that was scheduled to take place last October 21, we are waiting for it to be held, at the request of the International Federation, but because of those who hunted and wrote to the international organization, so the decision to postpone, and the question here is who benefits from that? And who sent his letter? And whoever led us to the labyrinths that we do not need, and until writing this “corner” we do not know the fate of the Swimming Federation, this game that started with the establishment of the state, but rather we are among the founders of the Arab Federation for the game, where he was elected as Vice President of the Arab Federation. The task was assigned to Abdul Rahman Al-Jarwan in May 1976 During the founding meeting of the Gulf Federation held in Riyadh and at the first formation of federations, including swimming in 1974, the UAE organized the first Gulf swimming championship on that day, and on that day Palestine also participated out of our support for Palestinian sport. This tournament that took place in the capital Abu Dhabi found special care and attention from the late Sheikh, God willing Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. May God rest his soul in peace. He attended and honored the victorious heroes. Today, we cannot form a local federation. Isn’t it strange and astonishing? It is time to reveal the papers, gentlemen!!
And the God of the intent behind
