The Saudi Sports Channel 2 (SSC 2) featured our young champion Malik Bakhsh's 'Ticket to Ride' experience by SAEC in the Masters of Dirt Vienna show. The clip was presented on the 11th of September 2020 during the live F1 commentary, highlighting the vast changes in the motor sport industry in Saudi Arabia and the importance of exposing young Saudi talent to global events and experts in the field. You can watch the video below - please note the video was created by SSC, and SSC is the owner of the video.

 

Saudi Arabia has a wide range of young talent with great potential to compete on a global scale. As part of Vision 2030 targets, the Kingdom strives to increase the number of hobby clubs to 900 clubs, increase the number of athletes participating in the Olympics to 50 athletes, increase the percentage of sport sector's participation in the GDP to 1% by 2030, and many more.  

​

As such, we have a long-term vision at SAEC to not only bring sporting entertainment acts and assets that inspire the youth and adults, but also offer and support sustainable infrastructures and resources that allow the development of world-class athletes.

​

Malik’s story is a testimony of the endless opportunities that awaits our talented youth in Saudi Arabia!
