GDN Media will be publishing a series of articles featuring Bahrain’s Paris 2024 athletes as the countdown continues to the games of the XXXIII Olympiad.
Our first interview is with Bahraini swimmers Amani Al Obaidli and Saud Ghali – two of the youngest members on the kingdom’s national team – who will be looking to make their mark in the French capital.
Amani Al Obaidli and Saud Ghali are set to continue the tradition of Bahraini wildcards competing at the Olympics when they get into the pool at Paris La Defense Arena for the swimming events at Paris 2024.
Al Obaidli and Ghali have been selected by the Bahrain Olympic Committee (BOC) and the Bahrain Swimming Association (BSA) to represent the kingdom at the French capital as universality entries. These are places given to nations that do not have any qualified athletes, wherein one man and one woman are granted participation in a single event each.
