Bahrain’s girls’ youth football team is set to hold a training camp in Abha, Saudi Arabia, as part of preparations for the West Asia Championship in Jordan.

The team is due to play two international friendlies against Saudi Arabia’s girls’ youth side on July 3 and 5 before travelling to Jordan for the tournament.

The West Asia Championship draw placed Bahrain in Group Two alongside hosts Jordan and Palestine. Bahrain will open their campaign against Palestine on July 20 before facing Jordan on July 22.

The squad, coached by Khalid Al Harban, is continuing local preparations before the Abha camp, which will include morning and evening training sessions aimed at raising the players’ technical readiness for the tournament.
