Egypt’s Minister of Youth and Sports, Dr. Ashraf Sobhy was keen to congratulate Al Ahly’s board of directors for the inauguration of the club’s branch in Luxor.  

During his speech at the inauguration ceremony, Minister Sobhy revealed his thoughts about Al Ahly’s new branch in Luxor. 

“Tonight is one of Luxor’s magical nights. From the heart of Thebes, Al Ahly’s boards of directors inaugurate the club’s branch in Luxor. Such occasion portrays the role of the Egyptian government in establishing huge sports projects.”

“Al Ahly’s new branch in Luxor is considered to be one of the biggest sports projects. I would like to thank Al Ahly’s board of directors, Estadat Company, and everyone who worked on making sure that this project comes to life.”

“The eagerness of Al Ahly Sporting Club to open a new branch in Luxor reflects their interest in Upper Egypt. This new branch is an opportunity to all the Egyptian Youth in Upper Egypt, especially that the club has a lot of great facilities.”

“Also, the inauguration of Al Ahly’s Luxor branch comes in time with several other notable events that Egypt witnessed in the last period, such as the 2021 Martyrs Day, celebrated on Tuesday 9 March." 

“Additionally, I would like to salute all the Egyptian martyrs who dedicated their souls for the greater good of the nation.”

“On a different note, we at the Egyptian Ministry of Youth and Sports acknowledge all the efforts that are done from all the Egyptian sports institutions, which contribute to the spread and development of the Egyptian sports activities throughout the country.”

“Additionally, the Egyptian government provides its full support for any sports investments that are done in Egypt; as such investments will help in boosting the Egyptian economy.”

“Moreover, all sports clubs with a huge fan base have a great impact on the Egyptian society; as these clubs receive great support from their fans in the different competitions which they compete in.”

“Also, creating new branches throughout the nation for these popular clubs would help in the social, sport, and infrastructure development of the country. Moreover, creating new branches in different Egyptian governorates would also serve the Egyptian youth.”

“Finally, I would like to thank Al Ahly’s sporting directors, Estadat Company, and the city council of Thebes in Luxor for all the efforts that they exerted in building Al Ahly’s new branch in Luxor. I wish everyone all the best and I hope to meet you in the inauguration of another new sporting project in Egypt.”
