Princess Reema bint Bandar Al Saud, Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the United States, has joined the All Women's Sports Network (AWSN) as an adviser, in an appointment announced on October 6, 2026.
the role supports the network's plans to expand coverage of women's sports across the Middle East and internationally, giving female athletes and competitions a wider platform.
The network is also reported to be planning events and programmes in Saudi Arabia during 2027. Specific venues, prices, and timings have not yet been announced, and further details are expected closer to those dates.
Why it matters
Women's sport has grown rapidly in the Kingdom in recent years, with more opportunities to train, compete, and watch local and international events. Greater media coverage can raise the profile of female athletes and encourage wider participation among residents and families across Riyadh, Jeddah, and beyond.
For the community, the appointment signals continued momentum behind women's sports and points to more organised events and programming in the Kingdom in the year ahead. We will share confirmed details on venues, dates, and entry arrangements as they become available.
