UAE: Mohammed Sagher Mubarak, a dedicated employee of The Kanoo Group's Kanoo Machinery division, proudly participated in the Special Olympics World Games held in Berlin from June 17th to 25th. Mubarak's involvement aimed to support and uplift community members of People of Determination in the UAE.
The UAE contingent garnered immense praise for their exceptional performance at the Special Olympics World Games Berlin 2023, the largest global sports and humanitarian event. Surpassing expectations, the UAE secured a record-breaking 73 medals, including an impressive haul of 18 gold, 22 silver, and 33 bronze medals across 20 different sporting disciplines.
As the event attracted participants worldwide, the UAE fielded the largest delegation from the Middle East and North Africa region, comprising over 160 individuals. This group included 72 athletes of determination with intellectual and developmental disabilities and 31 unified partners who participated in group sports.
Our very own Mr Mohammed Mubarak of The Kanoo Machinery served as an event facilitator volunteer and played a vital role in supervising the UAE team. Notably, he was an instructor for the 'Equestrian Team.'
The UAE-based athletes showcased their incredible skills and determination, participating in various sports such as swimming, badminton, bowling, athletics, beach volleyball, basketball, cycling, equestrian, and powerlifting.
The Kanoo Group sincerely appreciates the official team, coaches, medics, delegation management staff, volunteers, and the UAE Embassy in Germany, including His Excellency Ambassador Ahmed Al-Attari, National Director, Special Olympics UAE, and Head of the UAE delegation at the Special Olympics World Games Berlin 2023, and UAE Mission members for their generosity and unwavering support throughout the Games. We also acknowledge the special recognition given to the athletes' families who travelled to Germany to uplift and encourage their sons and daughters.
