Sharjah: The Supreme Organising Committee (SOC) of the Arab Women Sports Tournament 2018 (AWST) signed an agreement on Tuesday with Etisalat, a long-standing supporter of the event, naming it as the exclusive partner for the fourth edition, taking place from Feb.2-12.

Having previously acted as the Platinum Sponsor of the tournament, which is organised by the Sharjah Women’s Sports Foundation (SWSF), Etisalat’s new role reflects its commitment to partner with leading local events that promote top-tier initiatives on health and fitness, and the empowerment of women across all fields, the sports industry in particular.

As AWST makes the final preparations for its largest ever event, with 15 Arab nations taking part, the agreement is a further endorsement of the importance of the tournament and the world class standards of international competition it hosts.
