Main Committee Message
Dear members,
The new season has kicked off and we enthusiastically welcome back everyone from their holidays! Though the summer is often a time of goodbyes, September is also full of hello’s so we would like to express a warm welcome to all new families arriving in Muscat.
Let me take a small moment of your time to introduce myself. My name is Simone, I am the new Sports Secretary for the RAHRC having taking over from Paul Sanders since May 2019. In January 2018, I moved to Muscat together with my husband, ready to embark on some new adventures in this beautiful country! As a Dutch national, outdoor and indoor activities have always been central in my life and I am continuously curious to engage in new sportive events. My role at RAHRC entails supporting all 23 sports sections of the Club, promoting their activities and ensuring they can safely pursue their sports. I look forward to working together with you all, learning from your expertise and being able to continue to offer a wide variety of sports, motivating everyone around us to pursue a healthy athletic lifestyle.
