Middle East Archery Centre (MEAC) Parapan American Games 7-22 November 2011 End of Operation It is with melancholy that Wor ld Archery had to make the decision to close the very famous "MEAC" (Middle East Archery Centre) . This institution brought a lot of satisfaction; the most prest igious one is indisputably the gold medal of Ibrahim SABRY (EGY) at the Youth Olympic Games 2010 . But the impact of the MEAC on the 10-11 December 2011 development and the rise of the level of the archery in several countries—and not only in the Middle East—is another very important progress which we would not have been able to achieve without it. Regrettably since the beginning of the year 2011 the MEAC had few users. The reasons are the political situation in Egypt; a country where the bow is classified as a weapon, what generated additional problems to travel with archery equipment) to/from Egypt. Olympic Games 27 July-12 August 2012 Furthermore, we did not have a permanent archery ground anymore, since a recent important reorganis ation of the local sports facilities there. In front of all these difficulties, an official stop of the MEAC activities in Cairo was inescapable. A centre remains however in se rvice under the leadership of Wadi Degla Sportif Club and of the Egyptian Archery Federation. World Archery deeply thanks Wadi Degla Sporting Club and the Paralympic Games Egyptian Archery Federation (hosts of the MEAC) for the excellent 29 August-9 September 2012 partnership that we lived for six years, and this especially thanks to Mr Aladin GABR. We also thank the staff of the MEAC, Miss Nancy World Archery Federation ABD EL MONEM EL GIBILY the secretary, Mr Ayman HELAL the Fédération mondiale de tir à l'arc coordinator in the formalities and the transport local and especially Maison du Sport International the coach MUN Baek Woon for their good services.
