Pakistan Shines at 31st Al Bareh Sailing Regatta with Gold and Bronze Wins

Pakistan’s sailing team delivered an impressive performance at the 31st Al Bareh Sailing Regatta in Bahrain, returning home with gold and bronze medals in one of the region’s most competitive sailing events.

Muzammil Hassan Clinches Gold in ILCA 7 Class

Leading the charge was Muzammil Hassan, who secured the gold medal in the ILCA 7 class — a highly challenging Olympic sailing category formerly known as the Laser Standard. Hassan’s consistent performance, strategic skill, and race awareness helped him outpace seasoned competitors and earn a well-deserved spot at the top of the podium.

Hamza Ejaz Adds Bronze to Pakistan’s Tally

Adding to the national team’s success, Hamza Ejaz showcased strong sailing abilities in the same category, securing a bronze medal and reinforcing Pakistan’s growing presence in international sailing.

Promising Performances from Young Pakistani Sailors

Pakistan’s emerging talent also left a mark at the regatta:

  • Muhammad Suleman, competing in the Optimist class (for sailors under 15), delivered a strong performance and finished fourth, narrowly missing a podium finish. His skill under pressure highlighted his potential for future success.

  • In the ILCA 4 category, Muzammil Hussain — another promising young sailor — achieved a commendable sixth-place finish against a tough international field.

Both Suleman and Hussain are part of Pakistan’s youth sailing development program, which focuses on nurturing future Olympians and elite-level athletes.


A Step Forward for Sailing in Pakistan

This strong showing at the Al Bareh Regatta reflects the positive trajectory of sailing in Pakistan, and underscores the importance of continued investment in youth training, international exposure, and competitive experience.

With growing talent and international recognition, Pakistan is steadily sailing toward a brighter future in the world of competitive sailing.
