RIYADH: The Saudi Dodgeball Federation this week hosted an event to introduce wheelchair users to a version of the sport they can take part in. The federation said the first-of-its-kind event, which took place on Monday at Riyadh Club for Persons with Disabilities, was an example of the social programs and activities it offers as part of its efforts to promote and expand participation in the sport across the Kingdom. This reflects the organization’s commitment to helping disabled persons develop their talents and abilities, it added, in line with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030, the national plan for development and economic diversification. Federation officials present at the event included its president, Prince Saud bin Abdulaziz, and its executive director, Abdulaziz Al-Hazani. Prince Saud thanked the Riyadh Club for its constructive cooperation with federation in staging the event, and praised it for the work it does to support and train athletes with disabilities. “The event is a continuation of the federation’s ongoing efforts and commitment to working with various entities and organizations across the Kingdom to serve Saudi sports and contribute to the realization of Vision 2030 objectives,” he added.

LIVERPOOL, England: Goodison Park will become the home of Everton’s women’s team from next season, the English club said Tuesday. Everton’s men’s team is preparing to bid an emotional farewell to its long-time stadium ahead of a move to the newly built, 53,000-seat venue at Bramley-Moore Dock ahead of the start of next season. Instead of Goodison Park being demolished, it will host Women’s Super League matches, with the women’s side moving from its nearby current home in Walton Hall Park. “This move is a testament to where the women’s game is right now and, more importantly, where it is heading,” Everton captain Megan Finnigan said.

ROME: Jannik Sinner came through the first true test of his comeback from a doping ban with Tuesday’s straight-sets win over Francisco Cerundolo which took the world number one into the Italian Open quarter-finals. Italian Sinner bested 17th seed Cerundolo 7-6 (7/2), 6-3 in a match which was delayed by a couple of hours due to a torrential downpour to set up a last-eight clash with either Casper Ruud or Jaume Munar. Cerundolo knocked out Sinner in the last 16 the last time he played here in 2023, but that was before the 23-year-old had became the tournament-winning machine he is today. Sinner is finding his feet in Rome, his first tournament since the end of a three-month suspension accepted in February from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) following two positive tests for traces of clostebol in March last year. His true target is the French Open which follows his home event and he showed some signs of rediscovering the form which has won him three Grand Slams and last year’s ATP Finals. Sinner had to battle through the first set against spirited Cerundolo but once he prevailed in the tie-break he built up an unassailable lead by winning four games in a row in the second. The packed center court stands hailed their hero after he took the win at the fourth time of asking and continue his bid for a first Rome title. The rain which delayed Sinner’s match had a much bigger impact on his compatriot Lorenzo Musetti, who reached the last eight after having to wait nearly three hours at match point before he could finish off his victory over Daniil Medvedev. World number nine Musetti will face either reigning Rome champion Alexander Zverev in the last eight after seeing off Medvedev 7-5, 6-4. Musetti held his nerve to win on
