Speaking during the opening ceremony of the first edition of the “ISF World School Golf Championship (WSGC),” being held from July 14 to 21 at the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam in Rabat, under the effective presidency of His Royal Highness Prince Moulay Rachid, he emphasized that this confidence is the result of the implementation of the High Royal Directives and the enlightened vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI in the field of sports in general and school sports in particular.

Organized by the Royal Moroccan Golf Federation (FRMG), the Hassan II Trophy Association, the Ministry of National Education, Preschool and Sports, and the Royal Moroccan School Sports Federation (FRMSS), in partnership with the International School Sport Federation (ISF), this grand sporting event is a new international golf competition reserved for athletes from the school system.

Young female and male players from Europe, Africa, Asia, America, and the Middle East – representing 16 countries- are taking part in this event, which is included in the official ISF calendar.

In this regard, Berrada expressed, on behalf of the international golf community, “our deep gratitude and sincere thanks to HRH Prince Moulay Rachid, President of the FRMG, for launching this initiative, supporting it with all his energy, and ensuring its realization.”

“This championship embodies our shared ambition to use sport as a means to educate our youth in the values of citizenship and openness to the world,” he added, welcoming in this context the decision to host future editions of the championship in Morocco in 2026 and 2028.

This event is part of the World School Championships organized by the International School Sport Federation (ISF) and confirms Morocco’s continued commitment to developing school sports and youth at the global level.
