Paris: Omani young swimmer Issa Al Adawy began warm-up training at the La Défense stadium in Paris on Friday, coached by Tunisian head coach Amer Ben Ruqaya. On the other hand, runners Ali Al Barooshi and Mazoon Al Alawi will start their first warm-up training session at the Stade de France on Saturday.
The Omani delegation attended a technical meeting for the aquatics disciplines at the Arena de La Défense in Paris, with all representatives present. The meeting reviewed the athlete lists and confirmed the official training plans as well as the rules and regulations for each competition. Team managers were reminded to inform swimmers to strictly adhere to the allocated training times to ensure equal opportunities for all participants.
More than 854 swimmers, including 463 men and 391 women from 187 countries, will compete in the aquatics events. Athletes from the International Olympic Committee’s Olympic Refugee Team will also take part in the events.
Al Adavi will compete in his second consecutive Olympic Games, where he will compete in the 100m freestyle on Tuesday. The preliminaries will start at 1:00 pm French time (3:00 pm Oman time). He will aim to give a performance different from his previous participation in the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. Al Adavi will be the second representative of our country’s national team in this important Olympic sport after shooter Saeed Al Khatri, who will start the competition on Monday at the Châteauroux Shooting Centre. The results of the preliminaries will be announced in the coming days. Al Adavi will compete with China’s Panzanier, the United States’ Jack Alex, Australia’s Kyle Chalmers, France’s Maxime Grousset, Hungary’s Nandor Nemeth and many other swimmers from around the world.
Swimming competitions will be held from Saturday to August 5, water polo competitions will be held from Saturday to August 8, and diving competitions will also be held during the same period. Open water competitions are scheduled for August 8, 9 and 10.

Ben Rukayya, head coach of the national swimming team, said Issa will go into this Olympics with different ambitions and goals than before. “His current technical and physical indicators are very different from the last Tokyo Olympics. He participated in the Doha World Swimming Championships in February this year and resumed his daily training after the end of the school year. This will help him create new personal and record-breaking results,” he said.
“We wish him the best in this Olympics and have positive expectations based on his technical and physical indicators and the training he has received. The recent preparation plan includes multiple training sessions in Muscat, twice a day, and his goal is to achieve optimal technical and physical readiness,” he said.
Al Adavi said he hopes to show a different side and achieve better results than his first time at the Tokyo Olympics. “This is my second time participating in the Olympics and in the three years, I have made significant progress in my technique and preparation plan. The training is long-term and I am focused on getting into the best shape. I work hard on endurance training and fast start training for the first 25 meters, and the coach divides the 100m freestyle into four parts, each focusing on a specific technical aspect to achieve the expected time,” he said.
