Over the past weeks, we have received extremely positive feedback on the events held here, and we have been encouraged to organise more and more activities for DSS visitors.”

DSS outlined that the tournament format for football requires registration of teams with six players, including a goalkeeper. Basketball teams need to have five players in each team. Only single player participation is allowed for table tennis. The archery contest is expected to attract significant attention due to its popularity amongst numerous nationalities residing in Dubai, DSS added.
