Sports Talent

In the grand hall of the center, a sports challenge program with advanced techniques was organized. From this space, one of the attendees was able to discover the talent of his son, who recently joined a famous football club, according to his statement. The father of the young man, Ahmed Al-Misnad, added that during his family’s visit to the Winter Ithra events, his son Ahmed took on a challenge with a football player who was in the same location. The challenge ended with his son’s victory due to his technical football skills.

He explained, “I was surprised by the presence of a football player from one of the Saudi clubs in the grand hall at Ithra, and it seemed to be part of a family visit. My son insisted on playing with him and documenting the moments by taking photos. Here came the surprise, with my son’s skill, as he had recently joined a football club as a beginner trainee, based on the player’s advice.”
