Sheik Said al Maktoum to stay in Belarus for one more week
The team from the United Arab Emirates that took place in the Belarus Open Shooting Cup will stay in Belarus for one more week, Sheik Said al Maktoum, who leads the team said in an exclusive interview with the Interfax news agency. "Initially, we planned to take off to Moscow right after the competition in Belarus. However, when we saw the conditions for shooting in the Russian capital, we consulted and decided to stay here for several more days," the Sheik said. "We don't have much to do in Moscow".
While in Belarus, Said al Maktoum plans to have regular drills. "I could travel around your country so that I could learn it better," he said. But being a shooter of a high class he "needs to keep himself in form". "I am getting ready for a world championship to take place in Cyprus. So shooting is a No 1 priority for me now," he said.
Said al Maktoum took part in the Belarus Open for the first time and immediately won the second position in an Olympic discipline. "I dit not expect this result. However, I managed to close 114 targets out of 150. It is good", the Sheik said.
