He went on to assert that the successes of the "Knights of Resolve" in all continental and international forums are the fruits of the thoughtful care of the wise leadership and HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who is an ardent supporter of sports for people of determination. Their thoughtful care is manifested in providing all success factors for the Knights of Resolve, who did not disappoint. This affirms that our national team has a great potential and can walk on the path of achievement.
Moreover, he emphasided the keen interest of ZHO Board of Directors, headed by H.H.
