Under the umbrella of the Ministry of Sports and Youth, Al Arabi Sports Club’s summer activities include awareness activities for participants. In collaboration with the Studies and International Affairs Department of the General Directorate of Drug Control at the Ministry of Interior, an awareness lecture on drugs was held. The lecture was delivered by Dr. Abdulsalam Saleh Al-Hanash. Supervisors, summer activity participants at the club, employees, and parents were invited to attend this event.
Cooperation of State Institutions to Combat This Scourge
This lecture is part of ongoing efforts to curb the spread of this scourge, warn against its effects, and identify its various forms. It also covers security and preventive measures against drugs, emphasizing the importance of cooperation among state institutions to combat this plague. The lecture aims to instill values that prevent youth from falling into the trap of drugs and alcohol through education, religious guidance, media awareness, and the issuance of stringent laws and regulations with severe penalties for those who promote or traffic drugs.
Investing Free Time
These lectures and meetings also contribute to providing suitable places for investing free time and ensuring that educational institutions across the state fulfill their social role in protecting the youth. These activities aim to raise awareness about the issue, which causes significant losses to individuals and communities, and to safeguard the youth.
Moreover, the summer activity at the club continues daily during the morning with significant participation from young children and juniors. The fourth week brings new and varied activities aimed at teaching participants new skills and refining their talents in many favorite sports, along with increasing the training dosage in physical fitness provided daily at the club’s sports hall, in addition to other events and activities.
