The idea for the Arab Women’s Games stems from the success of the previous “Gulf Games” organized by the Sharjah Ladies Club from 1997 to 2007, which were limited to Gulf countries. Building on this success, the concept of the Arab Women’s Games was born to include all Arab nations. Initiated in 2012, the Arab Women’s Games is the first of its kind for women in the Arab world, occurring every two years. Its main goals are to introduce the UAE and Sharjah, enhance the performance of Gulf and Arab club players, guide female athletes toward professionalism, and promote sportsmanship. The event also aims to foster a spirit of challenge among Arab female athletes in both individual and team sports while highlighting the positive impact of sports on health.
