After the parade, Mohammed Khatim and Fatma Lari entered the hall while carrying the Olympic torch to mark the launch of the event, after which Askar officially declared the Games open.
In his speech, Askar thanked Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, His Majesty’s Representative for Charity Works and Youth Affairs, Chairman of the Supreme Council for Youth and Sports, and President of the committee, for his support to this first-of-its-kind games in Bahrain.
Askar said: “The Bahrain Olympic Committee is so proud to organise the Baby Olympics, which is one of many initiatives of His Highness Shaikh Nasser, a first of its kind in the Kingdom and perhaps in the Arab world, which has many noble objectives aimed at instilling a culture of sport within children and developing their mental and physical abilities”.
On their part, representatives of kindergartens, nurseries and parents expressed their sincere thanks and gratitude to Shaikh Nasser to make this much-cherished event come true.
They also stressed the positive benefits of having such a sports gathering that will contribute to creating a new generation with awareness on the importance of sport and its impact on health, body, mind and personality in general.

certainly like your web site but you need to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of
your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling issues and I find it very troublesome to tell the truth however I’ll surely
come back again.

Hmm it looks like your site ate my first comment (it
was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up
what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying
your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything.
Do you have any points for beginner blog writers? I’d really appreciate it.
