KUWAIT, Oct 21 (KUNA) -- The Kuwait women's ice hockey team departed for Bangkok on Sunday before their second consecutive participation in the annual Land of Smiles tournament, which kicks off a week on Tuesday.
The 18-member squad will begin a week-long training schedule ahead of the six-day event, Kuwait Winter Sports Club deputy director Khaled Al-Mutairi told KUNA.
They are full of enthusiasm and are adamant to improve upon their performance last time round as they lock horns with opposition of varied global affiliation, the sports official said.
In their most recent competition, Kuwait claimed third place in the first-ever women's Gulf Ice Hockey Tournament held at the UAE capital of Abu Dhabi in May. (end) fsa.sd
