RIYADH: The Saudi Sports For All Federation and Premier League club Newcastle United have teamed up to launch a sports program aimed at 35-50-year-olds in Saudi Arabia, it was announced Wednesday.

SFA and the Newcastle United Foundation, an independent charity operated by the club, will work together to provide the Kingdom's older population, both citizens and residents, access to world-class, age-appropriate sporting amenities, resources, and experiences to get involved with sport.

The partnership comes under the leadership of the Ministry of Sports and its goals of attracting specialized international programs within the framework of community sports, in addition to supporting the Quality of Life program, an SFA statement said.

Set to be executed in three phases, the first and second stage of the program have been completed and established successfully.
