Salah Shabouh, head coach of Qatar’s delegation in Vietnam, considered Qatar’s participation in the Asian Youth Athletics Championships a great opportunity for the young generation in athletics, saying it would give them more confidence and experience, and that, based on the numbers, they are capable of achieving medals that boost the successes of Qatari athletics at this stage, noting at the same time that the current edition of the championship is the strongest in terms of participation and the pursuit of glory, pointing out that a major event awaits the continent’s youth in taking part in the World Championships in Poland a few weeks later, and therefore competition will be fierce, which puts the promising generation of juniors before a good challenge for more of the majority of Qatar’s youth to shine at the championship.
Ali Fadaaq, our team’s coach: Asian competition among the youth will be strong
High jump coach and one of Qatar’s most prominent athletes in the event, Ali Fadaaq, said the championship in its current form is a sign of strong competition among the continent’s champions, especially since the number of participants in the championship is large, which puts Qatar’s youth before a great challenge to boost Qatari successes in athletics, noting at the same time that Hamdi Al Amin, who will take on the high jump challenge, is capable of continuing the successes he has recorded regionally, and also has his eye on the World Championships in Poland, for which he has deservedly qualified and is progressing well in his programme.
Khalid Al Amri, our team’s manager: We look forward to the best results
Khalid Al Amri, manager of Qatar’s national youth athletics team, confirmed the readiness of Qatar’s promising athletes to give their best level in the field and track events, saying the goal is to continue the successes of Qatari athletics at the youth level, after Qatar excelled at the men’s, junior and youth level in the previous edition, and therefore the challenge is there for the champions, and all of them will be ready and have great confidence in boosting Qatar’s successes in Asia, noting that the generations of Qatari athletics continue with the same successes.
