This joint effort ensures the success of initiatives designed to foster leadership and excellence among young Kuwaitis.
Furthermore, Al-Mutairi praised the contributions of Kuwaiti youth to major events. These include the 26th Arabian Gulf Cup and the Veterans’ Tournament, both of which Kuwait recently hosted. Their dedication to organizing these events helped ensure their success.
Al-Mutairi concluded by commending the Public Authority for Sports for its role in nurturing young athletes. They provide them with world-class facilities and support to excel in competitions. He extended his heartfelt congratulations to Kuwaiti youth on their special day. He reiterated the government’s commitment to supporting them in every way possible.
