Does the “documentation project” interrupt the “Saudi championships” auctions?
While the previous work committees have vanished for controversial reasons, discussions that have not been written by Al -wefaq and an opposition of the clubs and their historians, the documentation project of the history of Saudi football has spent its meetings with great consent, for a higher goal than the contrast on the number of titles and championships.
In the scene of many, a historical precedent in the march of Saudi sport, the curtain (Tuesday) was dropped on one of the largest football documentation operations in the world; A project that rewrites the history of Saudi sport with documentation and investigation, not by diligence and dependence on memory.
The goal was not to declare the most culminating in the title of the Saudi League or in the King’s Cup, but that the work was similar to a sports museum, but it is written. It is a legacy that extends for more than one hundred years, has been rewritten and will see the light in a few days with an expanded relationship published by the Saudi Football Association through its website.
The Saudi football documentation project, which international experts have described as a “global model in commitment and governance”, was not simply a passage to document the Championships or the clubs of the club, but rather a profound institutional effort that have crossed years, led by a team of 10 members accredited by the General Assembly of the project, which includes 64 clubs that represent all the football degrees in Kingdom.
While some people think that the debate takes place on “Who has reached this title?” It is the essence of the documentation, except for the fact that the project has exceeded this restricted concept, since no vote has been made on the championships because it is a “stabilized historical reality”, but rather the vote was to establish the documentation standards and the commitment document, which was approved by the General Assembly unanimously within the official records, was a road map to build this historical record, which had been completed by 100 %.
Among the most important historical discoveries achieved by the work team is correcting the date of the foundation of the Saudi Football Association, since it was demonstrated by the official documentation that the Foundation dates back to May 18, 1955, not as previously believed that on June 10, 1956, on the basis of an official letter from the General Administration of Physical Sports and Scouts of the Ministry directed to Fifa.
The project also revealed the beginning of the Saudi League, underlining that the first official season dates back to the year 1957-1958, which makes the version of the season during the Saudi Professional League is the 67th edition in the sequence of the championship, historically completing 63 copies.
Not only is it at the limits of the dates, but the clubs have been officially established a record of their championships, to be documented and publicly and each club can now publish it in line with what has been declared in the final relationship.
This report, which exceeded 1500 pages, will be announced immediately after completing the official procedures and is an official reference for Saudi football, with its documents, images, official letters, professor and digital archive that reflects the football memory of the homeland.
The project is the result of the institutional cooperation in which the sovereign, cultural and sports parties participated from the King Abdulaziz House in the Ministry of Sport, the League League and the audiovisual media, together with the experts of the International Football Association (FIFA), which gave the project an unprecedented international and official dimension. One of the important documentation aspects is to monitor all the championships in the regions; Both periodically and with a direct elimination system, in order to preserve the names and earnings of historic clubs, as well as document 66 championships in the real name, including 36 copies of the King’s Cup with a direct elimination system and 30 copies of the championship system, together with 37 copies of the Crown Prince Cup.
In general, the project was not only a narrative of the glories of the past, but rather a foundation of an accredited Saudi athlete that can be exported to the world, as part of ambitious sports marketing plans that put the history of Saudi football in the front of the global scene.
Will the discussion on the heroes end?
In turn, Abdel -ilah al -najimi, a member of the Saudi football history documentation team, revealed that the final report of the project to document the history of Saudi football will be published in the next ten days.
Al -Nujaimi said in an intervention with the “UFM” radio that the clubs have the right to publish their championships that were ratified during the project, but with the clarification of the approved criteria, underlining that a number of clubs published the total number of their championships arrived in line with its adoption.
And on the publication of some clubs, the number of their championships in a way that seems to be different from what the final report included, at -nujaimi stressed that the clubs have joined the criteria that have been adopted, but have been published completely that it was accurate that the announcement includes the announcement that includes the announcement that includes the announcement that includes the announcement that includes the announcement that includes the announcement that includes the announcement that includes the announcement which includes the announcement that has been accurate that includes the announcement that has been accurate that includes the announcement that has been accurate that the announcement includes the announcement that it was accurate that includes the announcement that it was complete that the announcement was complete.
And on the publication of al -nasr in Which He Talked About Winning 19 League Championships, al -nujaimi Praised the work present by Al -Nasr Club Throughout The Project, Pointing Out that the report that was present to -Nasr Explained The Championship Standard, Whether Broad. “General” Patrols Or Regional Patrols, and that al -nasr Clarified in His Statement This, Which is Compatible with the agreement, indicating that the Final Report Will clarify the criterion of each championship and more competition.
Asked About The Youth Club Refusing to Ratify the Final Report, and Where’s is entitled to resort to the Cass Court, al -nujaimi Said: “Legal Matters Are Not Authorized to talk about them, but all Clubs Were Available To Them Individual Meetings and individual discussion, and all that Was present in the General Assembly was based on the Regulations and All Criteria Were Ratified, but the Last Criterion Had to Object to the Youth Club with al -Shabab Club, but in compliance with the ratification in the general assembly, everything that has been voted was related to the general principles and standards and the clubs were aware of what is agreed after each meeting.
He added: «I say to The Saudi Sports Street that has never been implemented with documentation projects with this elaborate governance and this success and the impressive organization in any part of the world; Everyone participated in the documentation of the history of sport and we have more than 150 samples and confirms that the history of Saudi football is common to all.
He continued: “The project is not directed and has no tendencies and a project that operates under this governance cannot work for a specific club, which everyone has touched during the meetings”.
He continued: “The Al -Shabab Club reserve concerned the main league (at the level of the kingdom) and criteria that have been set for this, and we have always accepted mentioning any objection to any criterion to be discussed and no direct notes reached us on this standard.
Characteristics of change in the final relationship
The final report of the project that monitored the history of Saudi football in a total way concluded that at the -ittihad it is the only team that participated in all the copies of the League, as well as a single championship champion marked 13 titles compared to ten titles for the victory.
The Federation also reduced the difference between al -hilal, which leads the honorary record of the samples of the Saudi League, with 21 titles, compared to 13 titles, after having previously owned eight titles.
Although Al -hilal Maintained Its Lead in the List of the Most Winning Clubs in the League, The Recent Documentation Results Revealed the loss of al -azrami, and that he is not the first champion of the league as it was previusly known, as it was revealed that al -hilal did not in all Copies of the Competition, as al -hilal lost part of its Historical preference after the different with the different with the federation, but in return al -hilal won the attribute of the club more by winning the King’s Cup after examining the records, its inheritance as the most reached club for the main championships.
As for the -ahly, he clearly benefited from the documentation project, since he went up to fourth place in the record of the league champions with 9 titles, to become a single title of the victory of third place, with 10 titles. In this project, Al -ahly is losing the team’s opportunity to win the King’s Cup which went to Al Hilal, but its championship ranking places him in a good position for the historical competition in the future.
For his part, the victory has lost several gains; The first is that it is no longer one of the teams that participated in all the copies of the championship, as in the case of Al -hilal. He also lost the program of the league champions in favor of Al -ttihad, and refused with a difference only from Al -hly, who became directly behind him, which threatened his participation if at the -hly he realized with the title and the loss was concentrated when he advanced it with two titles.
Perhaps the shock of youth was the most serious, since his ranking went down to the fifth record of the league champions, and after being previously third, with the number of his winning titles (6 League championships), he became far from the third victory (10 championships) with a difference in three championships.
Although the Al -wahda club is not one of the clubs in the number of titles, the documentation project was fairly fair, since it confirmed that it is the first sample of the Saudi League, and the first to reach the King’s Cup in 1966, which brought it back from its historic shine, which has been in the shade for many years.
