On November 18, 2024 the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Damascus hosted a donation ceremony to present professional tennis equipment to young Syrian tennis players.
The donation was made possible through the collaborative efforts of Karolina Pliskova Tennis Academy, the Czech companies G-service s.r.o. and Vodní zdroje Ekomonitor spol. s.r.o., and the Syrian company ARCHOUSE. Their contributions highlight the importance of international partnerships in fostering development and opportunities for youth in Syria.
Charge d'affaires of the Embassy Mr. Roman Masarik welcomed Dr. Safa Sarakbi, President of the Syrian Tennis Federation, whose leadership has propelled Syria to remarkable achievements in tennis. Under her guidance, the Syrian team has progressed to the World Group II Play-Offs of the Davis Cup, scheduled to take place in 2025.
This initiative not only supports the development of tennis in Syria but also underscores the Czech Republic's dedication to support young sport talents. This noble gesture reflects the enduring partnership between Czechia and Syria.
