Phuket Island

UAE sports at the past

At the past UAE was very poor country, they were doing many activities some of them for living and the others for fun. For living they were doing the diving to get the pearl “lulu” to sell it and fishes as well. On the other hand, for having fun they were doing a lot more the most famous one they call it “shorti and harami” means the police and the criminal basically the police group will chase the criminals group and try to catch them in specific time limit. Also, there is another one which is a bit similar that all the players will hide and one guy only have to catch them all in time limit as well they call it “Alyoreed”. Also, there was challenging in a game called “arabanat alhadeed” in this game the players will take a bike tyre and take off the rubber leave the iron piece only and try to roll it using a stick so, they will see who can hold it and roll it for the longest distance. “The treasure” is a group game the idea of the game is hiding something somewhere and the other players will start to look for it, the guy who hide the thing should draw sample of the place and show them where its hidden the player who will find that will be the winner and he will have to hide for the next round. One of the very famous race here is  the camel race, the camel race at the beginning was dangerous for the racers who ride the camel many of them got injured so, after a while they brought a machine that will do the same process of the racer .and the machine will be control using remote control

Case Study - Reflection:

We decided to choose a good attraction to do a case study about so, we chose Yas Marina Circuit. Yas Marina Circuit its kind of a new thing in our region and it has become one of the famous places to visit. The thing that makes Yas so special is the activities they run there. The circuit in general is known as a formula 1 racing track but, Yas has totally changed that concept. people can visit Yas at anytime other than the racing days; they can try many experiences full of speed and excitement. they have there many types of fast cars you may drive or be driven. On top of that, people will try them on the same track used for the formula 1 racing which is very unique. Also, in their busy schedule they have other manufacturer that will rent the track and try their new launched cars and show then to their customers. Technically, the track has 22 turns and a long straight so, the cars can be tested in those turns and the acceleration can be tested in the long straight too. The stadium has a capacity of 50,000 seats but, the number of people has exceeded so, they have to expand the number of seats. The thing that makes Yas marina circuit beautiful is the marina that is located at the side and the shining hotel which gives a very beautiful view at night. In addition, they are running a racing school there which people can learn how to do many things like drifting and racing skills,. The clients process thru some lessons and after finishing then he can have a racing license to join competitions and the same thing with drifting. However, Yas marina circuit is hosting something very different from racing cars and that is the cycling. weekly they host a cycling sport under the name of "Go Yas"; the people there can bring their own bikes or rent there in the circuit and people can experience the track with very nice music. That activity is taking place every Tuesday and Wednesday, Tuesday is for male and Wednesday is for females. In addition, that wont be for the cycling only; also people who like to jogging can join too.
