The team was competing in the West Asian qualifiers where Zeyad Abu Yaman lost 4-2 in the semi-final to Qatar's Ping Li, this was after winning two matches against Qatar's Mohammad Abdulwahhab (4-0), and Saudi Arabia’s Akram Al Ghamdi (4-1).
Bara Al Wedian won matches against Syria's Souzan Mohammad (4-1) and Heba Allejji (4-1), but lost her semi-final to Lebanon's Mariana Sahakian.
Zeyad Aziz and Sewar Abu Yaman left the competition in the first round, while Taimmaa Abu Yaman lost in the second round to Sahakian.
Only the gold medal winners advanced to the Olympic Games.
