(CLUSTER) ​​Implement event management training for officials

Safety

SATC aimed to train its local motor sport officials according to FIA standards and safety practices, and also form the core of an organising committee that would be able to organise local and regional speed tests and drift events. The Sudanese participants would be joined by a group from the Yemen ASN, YCTA. The primary objective for the project was to be the development of a number of highly-trained officials from both of the ASNs who could then start to organise motor sport events in their countries. Abu Obeida El-Haj, the Sudan Club Coordinator and Project Manager, Mazen Al Nabhani, the Yemen Club Coordinator and Hani Shaban, Qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation Training Programmes Manager, were to be responsible for managing the activity.

The training would be delivered by QMMF, an FIA Regional Training Provider. The major tasks that were to be associated with the activity were the development of suitable training materials in consultation with the FIA, preparing and training a group of around 50 officials from the ASNs, preparing manuals for each type of event that were to be the guidelines to be followed by the officials, preparing proposed supplementary regulations for drift and speed test events, event management and volunteer training, as well as guidance on how attract drivers and sponsors. The project was to be deemed to be a success if both the clubs were able to form organising committees that were able to manage a local motor sport event following the training sessions.
