Congratulations to Waleed Raouf for winning the Multi-business Group Battle of the Padel Tournament on May 21, 2024!
"Winning the BCC padel tournament has been an unforgettable experience. Beyond the exhilarating matches, this journey has been about more than just sports—it's been about forging new connections and strengthening existing ones in our corporate environment. The victory is compounded when considering I was the only AmCham member in the tournament, but credit has to be given to who I was paired with - Andy Oldham of Mace. As a team we did very well and played magnificently, especially in the final where we literally had to claw victory from the jaws of defeat. Bring on the next tournament” - Waleed Raouf, UAE Business Manager - Power Gen Sales, Cummins |
