The 2017 Olympic Day, which is celebrated all over the world, will be held in Bahrain on May 6, the Bahrain Olympic Committee (BOC) announced today
This year’s event is organized by the BOC in cooperation with Gulf University as per an agreement signed recently.
Supreme Council for Youth and Sports deputy general secretary and Bahrain Olympic Committee (BOC) general secretary Abdulrahman Askar has formed a committee tasked at preparing for the activities.
The committee, headed by Hasan Abdullatif, had two meetings already and has made the initial plan for the event programme, to be held for the first time at Bahrain Bay.
A variety of sports and entertaining activities are scheduled to take place throughout the day, as Bahrain joins other National Olympic Committees from around the world to celebrate this special occasion.
Abdullatif said the Bahrain Roadrunners, which is under the umbrella of the Bahrain Athletics Association, will be a key partner with the Bahrain Olympic Committee to bring this event by providing full support in organizing a running race during the day.
He noted that the venue for this year’s activities was given a priority compared to other suggested landmarks due to its preferred location and motivational scenery that overlooks the bay.
