Dubai, United Arab Emirates, April 20, 2020: The United Arab Emirates National Olympic Committee has launched a drawing competition for children revolving around three themes including clean play in sport.

“From our attention to the time of our children during this period, and our desire to present different ideas that improve their talents and develop their skills, we announce the launch of the drawing competition in collaboration with the international committee for clean play,” the UAE NOC posted on its Facebook page.

The competition is split into three age groups: below five years; from 6 to 14 years; and 15 and above.

The three themes are: (a) what do you do about the coronavirus epidemic; (b) what makes you committed to clean play; (c) what games have you played lately.

Paintings can be painted by hand or coloured on paper or cardboard and sent by email to Art@Olympic.ae with the name and age of the child. Entries can also be sent by Instagram.

The closing date for entries is April 30. 

Every participant will receive a certificate from the UAE Olympic Committee.
