Competition for Female Talents Winds Down at Sulaibiya Cricket Ground, Conducted by KCC
🚀Boom! Women's cricket in Kuwait is no longer a whisper in the desert wind but a roaring storm taking over the Sulaibiya Cricket Ground! The recently held Women's Talent Hunt attracted a diverse pool of players – from junior cricketers to former softball players, all chasing the dream of representing Kuwait at the national level.
Under the watchful eyes of KCC Head Coach and Development Manager Qasim Ali, and Assistant Coach Aslam, who also captains the Kuwait Men's National Team, these aspiring players got the chance to train with the hard ball and showcase their skills. Their guidance offered a solid ground for skill assessment and future development.
The event was graced by the presence of Ms. Awatif Al Qallaf, a KCC Board Member who's been a driving force for women's participation in cricket, especially among Kuwaiti nationals. Her presence served as a testament to the growing institutional support for women's sports in the country.
Big names from Kuwait's Women's National Team, including captain Amna Sharif Tariq, Maryam Omar, Shanthi, Suchita, Bhavani, and Khadija, shared their wisdom with the participants, mentoring them and inspiring the next generation.
Headed by the visionary President, Mr. Haider Farman, and Director General Mr. Sajid Ashraf, the KCC Board remains steadfast in its commitment to grassroots development, talent identification, and gender inclusivity in cricket. The successful execution of the Women's Talent Hunt is a clear reflection of this dedication, paving the way for a competitive and inclusive future for women in the sport.
As more doors open for aspiring female cricketers, the foundation is being laid for a strong and sustainable women's cricket program in Kuwait. Recent partnerships, like the one with Al-Muzaini Exchange, have been instrumental in organizing open trials, further emphasizing the growing interest and support for women's cricket in the country.
Hosting an ICC Level-1 Coaching Course also demonstrates Kuwait Cricket's broader commitment to enhancing coaching standards, which could indirectly benefit women's cricket by improving overall coaching quality. Here's to a brighter and more competitive future for women's cricket in Kuwait! 🌟🏏💪🏆
