  • Horiya Al Dhaheri: UAE football pioneer.

    Horiya is the assistant coach of the UAE women’s national football team, and is helping grow women’s football in the UAE. She is also able to train and qualify new coaches.

    Her passion for football started when she used to play with her brothers. After playing for 10 years for the Abu Dhabi Country Club and UAE national team she decided it was time to step into coaching.

    When Horiya isn’t coaching she works as a Technical Sport Co-ordinator at the Abu Dhabi Sports Council, and she has just opened her football academy ‘Legends’.
