Al -ittihad Women … Great and ambitious names postponed reaching the Saudi women’s league

After the historical announcement of “Vision 2030”, sport in Saudi Arabia is no longer simply an entertainment activity or a seasonal competition, but has become a solid social pillar that contributes to building an individual, improving the quality of life and forming characteristics of a new generation more aware of his health and activity. This move was not a coincidence, but rather a strategic vision that started with the beginning of the vision that made sport one of the paths of human and social development.

Sport began to take its intrinsic part of the culture of the Saudi society, which made the sport sector to have an expansion vision aimed at exploiting youth energy, creating new economic opportunities and providing advanced sports infrastructures.

In recent years, Saudi Arabia has witnessed an unprecedented expansion in supporting the sports sector. Dozens of clubs have been created and developed, qualitative programs and qualitative initiatives have been launched at the level of schools and universities and training courses have been created to perfect the skills of coaches and instructors and local competitions were launched that contributed to the discovery and improvement of talents in various games.

This sporting expansion did not stop on the borders of the green rectangle or closed rooms, but rather it was clearly reflected in lifestyles within the Saudi society. Physical activity has become part of the routine of everyday life and the neighborhoods witnessed an extraordinary presence of the spaces designated to walk, run and cycling, in light of the clear support of the government for the development of public structures.

This Renaissance has also contributed to motivating the private sector to enter sports investments, through the care of the club, the organization of championships or even the support of specialized sports academies.

The state has not lost sight of the importance of the infrastructure. The Saudi cities have witnessed a great development in sports facilities and the creation of enormous projects aimed at making the kingdom a global destination for important sporting events. All this comes to the light of the unlimited support from the leadership, which has put sport one of the axes of building the modern Saudi human being, in addition to education, culture and health.

From entertainment to employment

Just a few years ago, sport in the kingdom after it was seen with a limited entertainment activity in complete development. Today, sport has become one of the pillars of the new economy and one of the main components of the Vision Saudi Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the sources of income and improve the quality of life.

The sporting sector in the kingdom is no longer just a stadium and the fans, but rather it has turned into a real labor market that hosts thousands of Saudi and Saudi women in administrative, technical, doctors and organizational works. Through clubs, federations, academies and marketing and care companies, sport has become a generator of economic opportunities and a tributary of the local job market.

According to official statistics, the number of employees in Saudi sports clubs has reached over 5700 employees until 2024, in a clear indication that sport is no longer a marginal activity, but rather it has become a real economic and professional crane.

This professional expansion did not come from a vacuum cleaner, but it was the product of an ambitious strategy aimed at making the kingdom a leading sporting destination in the region and worldwide. This is to host important international championships and form a sports infrastructure that competes with the best in the world, as well as allowing national skills to work in all specializations relating to the sector.

Today, Saudi Arabia is exporting a new image into the world: a country that builds an integrated mathematician future and offers its work, ambition and youth place in global platforms.

Sports base for the champions industry

In the world of sport, the heroes do not create a coincidence, but rather they make their successes in the fields, in schools and in the secondary stadiums, since history often starts from a “talented project” that develops to become a “national history”. In Saudi Arabia, the state soon created this concept and established an integrated infrastructure to discover and form sports talents, which are one of the largest in the region.

At the level of institutional readiness, 11 programs were launched to develop sports talents in various age games and bands and 16 youth training centers have been established within the “training” program, which is the cornerstone of any future professional sports path.

These programs are not satisfied with the training skills, but rather of the inclusion of mathematical sciences, fitness, mental and psychological analysis and providing high quality technical and administrative skills, to ensure the growth of talents in a balanced and professional way.

The efforts did not stop when the centers and programs were established, but also included enormous detection operations that included more than 84,000 participating children, in over 20 cities and conservatives throughout the kingdom, which reflects the severity of the project and its complete targeting of all the segments of the company.

Among these thousands, 1,110 children have been appointed as promising talents who are now subject to advanced rehabilitation phases, to be the core of the new heroes who will bring the name of the kingdom in the future on continental and international level.

This rule that has been built is not only for competitions, but for an integrated human future. Each child is discovered and every talent is shiny, it represents an investment in human capital and in the identity of a homeland that bets on his youth and gives them all the tools of progress.

Sport in the heart of “vision”

At the center of the 2030 Saudi vision, sport was not a secondary element, but rather a strategic element within an ambitious plan to create a healthy society, a varied economy and an advanced international status. Therefore, the sports federations support programs and the development of sports excellence, to constitute the basis for unprecedented qualitative change.

The strategy of excellence for Saudi Arabia has allowed the registration of a prominent presence in international forums, since national skills have been able to achieve international medals and results. This progress was not accidental, but a product of targeted programs that targeted the construction of heroes from the early sunny phases, allowing them to training, scientific and moral support.

This trend was accompanied by a complete development of infrastructures from stadiums and sports facilities prepared and accredited internationally, as well as expanding the scope of competitions, increasing the quality of training and allowing national coaches.

All this coincided with the strengthening of the discovery programs of talents, which are not satisfied with the inclusion of the athletes, but rather to improve them and qualify them academically, physically and cognitively, which makes the project of Saudi sports excellence integrated and complete from the roots at the top.

Through this system, sports success is no longer only a transitional event, but rather a sustainable path based on planning, evaluation and benefit of international models, with a specificity that starts from the identity of the Saudi society and its priorities.

In recent years, Saudi Sport has turned into a success story Cross -Border, led by the Vision 2030 support, which has made sport a tool for strengthening, national results and a platform to lift the banner of the kingdom in international forums.
