Adventure sports get a shot in the arm

HH Shaikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa, First Deputy Chairman of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports and President of the Bahrain Athletics Association yesterday officially inaugurated the Adventure Hub in the Galleria Mall in Bahrain.

With a worldwide presence including in Europe and the US as well as the UAE, Adventure Hub is a leading company specialised in offering indoor active entertainment such as climbing in a very safe and well-equipped environment.

On this occasion, HH Shaikh Khalid said: “We are very happy to participate in the official launch of the first Adventure Hub branch in the Kingdom of Bahrain, which will contribute to spreading the climbing sports culture in the Kingdom. “Such an initiative will help in cementing Bahrain’s leading position as an incubator of all sports, including climbing which is witnessing a very large turnout among youth across the globe.

“Climbing is one of the sports that boost the blood circulation of the human body as well as helps to strengthen the muscles and raise the fitness level. It also stimulates the mind to think and react in a timely manner, which will have a positive impact on young Bahraini athletes who practice this kind of sports.” HH Shaikh Khalid hailed the efforts of Dadabhai Group of Companies, chaired by Mohammed Dadabhai, in supporting investments in the Kingdom by attracting well-known international companies.
