The UAE's sports strategy is deeply rooted in its broader economic diversification goals. As the nation seeks to reduce dependence on oil revenues, sports and recreation have emerged as key pillars of the knowledge-based economy.

Spanning 50 million square feet in the heart of Dubai, Dubai Sports City stands as the world’s first purpose-built sports city, a revolutionary concept that integrates Olympic-standard training facilities, professional sports venues, residential areas, and commercial zones into a single, cohesive development. Since its launch in 2007, this ambitious project has evolved into a thriving community of over 25,000 residents, including professional athletes, coaches, sports administrators, and families who share a passion for sport, active lifestyle and a genuinely balanced lifestyle.
