Ebtihaj Mohamed Ohaj, director of the Sudan Center for Persons with Down Syndrome said “in the first contest in Italy, Sudan was represented by three players, winning the second, third and fourth rank.
Contenders in the Italy championship beside Mohamed Derar were Alsir Hafiz and Abdallah Alhadi.”
In the Georgia contest, Ebtihaj said they participated with only one player, Mohamed Derar.
She said they are now designing a new plan for the upcoming contests for which they received invitations after the organizers saw the excellent showing of the Sudanese players.
