President of the Taekwondo Federation of FBiH Samir Šarić at an important reception in the UAE

(Patria) - President of the Taekwondo Federation of FBiH Samir Šarić, who is also a member of the presidency of the Taekwondo Federation of BiH and the Management Board of the European Taekwondo Union, visited the United Arab Emirates at the invitation of the head of the national federation there, Ahmed Hamdan Al Zeyoudi.

Mohmed Mahmoud Ahmed Azab, administrative secretary, also attended this extremely important reception. Šarić met with him during the recent World Championship for cadets, in which representatives of our country also participated, and which was hosted by the UAE, specifically Fujairah.

The President of the UAE Taekwondo Federation expressed special interest in cooperation with the Taekwondo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which has recently established itself in European and world circles as a federation with excellent ideas and projects.



Šarić used the fact that around 50,000 tourists from the United Arab Emirates visit Bosnia and Herzegovina annually as a reference point and argument that our homeland, with its favorable climate and exceptional natural beauty, is very attractive and interesting to citizens of the UAE.

Therefore, it also offers top conditions for the preparation of athletes and sports teams, which could be very beneficial for athletes from the United Arab Emirates for quality training.

One of the topics of the meeting was the construction of a national training center in Sarajevo, the completion of which and equipping is a strategic project of the Taekwondo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The goal is for European and world camps, as well as training for coaches, referees, military and official personnel, students, and pupils to be held in this center in the future.
