Abu Dhabi - Arab today

Two Emirati friends have launched a community sport development initiative called ‘The Courts’ in Abu Dhabi to get more women into sport.

Amna Al Mansouri and Mariam Al Omaira, both in their 20s, told XPRESS they want to develop a sports culture among women. “We want women to take sports seriously – both as a hobby and a career, ” said co founder Amna.

Self-confessed fitness freaks, Amna and Mariam play for the UAE National League and work for a government entity in the sports sector. They met on a football pitch and it was their passion for fitness that gave birth to The Courts. “As young Emirati women growing up in Abu Dhabi, we understood how challenging it is for females in the region to participate in sports and fitness activities,” said Amna.

Motivation

She said they were prompted to start The Court after seeing young women leading unhealthy lifestyles.

Mariam said The Courts is a social entrepreneurial venture that has three focus areas. “Court Eleven will engage with the community and organise awareness programmes and sports events.” They are also planning to start prenatal and special classes for the elderly and children between the ages of six month and two years.

A sports centre will be opened under Court Active while Court Nine will see the will see the launch of their own collection of stationery and accessories where design meets sport
