Jun 30, 2021
The International School Sport Federation (ISF) has officially welcome Jordan as a member during its General Assembly held on June 27.
Dr. Nawaf Al Ajarmeh, the President of Jordan School Sports Federation and Secretary General of the Ministry of Education expressed his pride at the Kingdom being included by the international body which organises the largest sports event for students aged 13-18 worldwide.
He pointed out that membership is a huge achievement and underlines the progress that Jordan has made in promoting sport within its school system.
Established in 1999, the Jordan School Sports Federation is formed as a union under the umbrella of the Jordan Olympic Committee, working closely with students in all Governorates across the the Kingdom.
It creates sporting opportunities for all age groups and is particularly keen to ensure that children from all backgrounds have the opportunity to enjoy, participate and benefit from sporting activity.
The Jordan Olympic Committee has a key goal to ensure that sport plays a part in the every day lives of all of its citizens, and works hard alongside like-minded organisations to ensure that the Spirit of Olympus spreads throughout the Kingdom.
