WORLD CLASS AL SOUD CONFIRMS ISLAMIC GAMES PARTICIPATION

World class gymnast Ahmed Abu Al Soud has confirmed that he will participate at the 5th Islamic Solidarity Games which will be hosted by the Turkish city of Konya from August 9-18.
Abu Al-Soud looks has taken the Gymnastic World by storm with some astonishing performance of late, and will join up with his Jordanian team mates for the multi-sport event next month.
The pommel horse specialist, who retained his Asian title last month in Qatar, will seek to secure Islamic Games victory in the first time that Jordanian gymnasts have competed at the event.
Coach, Gorgen Serkanyan, said that Abu Al Soud was in fine form and believes he can live up to his title as favourite for the title.
“He will be among the most prominent candidates for gold I am sure,” he said.
Jordan will be competing in 11 sports at the Games including shooting, swimming, gymnastics, karate, weightlifting, wrestling, kickboxing, fencing, taekwondo, 3×3 basketball and athletics.
