(AFP) Hamdan’s solitary strike seals the deal; Unlucky Qatar fought hard but could not breach defence despite chances AFC DOHA HOSTS and three-time cham- pions Qatar bowed out of the 24th Arabian Gulf Cup as Saudi Arabia rode on a soli- tary goal to make the final of the prestigious regional tour- nament at the Al Janoub Sta- dium on Thursday. Abdulla al Hamdan was the hero, scoring in the 28th minute as Saudi Arabia sealed a meeting with Bahrain in Sunday’s final. Bahrain defeated Iraq 5-3 on penalties after their tie ended 2-2. The match saw a slow start with no notable chances in the first 20 minutes although Qa- tar had more of the ball. However, it was Saudi Arabia who took the lead with Sultan Al Ghanam com- pleting a surging run down the left by sending in a cross that was deflected by Tarek Salman. Qatar goalkeeper Saad Al Sheeb tried to clear the danger but the pacey Al Hamdan did just enough to steer the ball into the net.

  • Balkan Case Challenge Is More Than Just an Ordinary Challenge
    The Balkan Case Challenge is more than just an ordinary challenge. It is a truly commendable experience which provides young people with a wide range of opportunities for networking, personal growth and development. During the event I got the chance to cooperate with and learn from highly qualified young people from different backgrounds, improve my teamwork skills and work on an inspiring case, and at the same time enjoy the lovely city of Vienna. Irena Efremovska, Macedonia, BIZ participant 2010 The very fi rst moments of the Balkan Case Challenge made it clear that we were here for a common goal: bringing us and our countries closer together. I have not only gained a lot of professional experience but also found friends from all over South-Eastern Europe.

  • USET Foundation NEWS
    USET Foundation NEWS UNITED STATES EQUESTRIAN TEAM FOUNDATION • VOLUME 14, ISSUE 3 • WINTER 2015 FOUNDATION SUPPORT Grants Athletes’ Team Dreams Competing at the top of equestrian sport and bringing home medals takes more than just drive and dedication in the modern era of show jumping, dressage and eventing. The financial commitment of competition has become prohibitive for some athletes, but thanks to the generous donors at the USET Foundation, riders like Callan Solem, Laura Graves and Matthew Brown have been able to reach their goals through grants and funding, bring- ing home top honors for the United States. SHOW JUMPING Callan Solem In equestrian sport, all junior riders dream of making it to the top of the sport and competing at the Grand Prix level, but the say- ing “it takes a village,” truly applies for the nation’s top show jump- ers. Callan Solem began her riding career as a working student for Carol Thompson, who recognized Solem’s talent and passion for the sport right away. With a dedication to her job and a love for the horses, Solem became the professional rider for Thompson in 1997, and in 2010 began riding for Virginia and Collin McNeil. Over the years, Solem has earned multiple top placings at some of the country’s biggest events, and has represented the United States at Nations Cup competitions in Europe and Mexico. But to be a part of the U.S. Show Jumping Team, it has taken more than just talent and dedication; it has taken the support of organi- zations like the USET Foundation.
