RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (April 25) -- United World Wrestling President Nenad LALOVIC met with Vice President of the Saudi Olympic and Paralympic Committee Fahad bin Jalawi Abdulaziz bin Musaed in Riyadh during his visit to Saudi Arabia.

Lalovic met with Fahad bin Jalawi at the Prince Faisal bin Fahad Olympic Complex in Riyadh. President of the Saudi Wrestling Federation Fahad Al-Faraj was also present during the meeting.

Saudi Olympic and Paralympic Committee and the Saudi Wrestling Federation discussed enhancing cooperation with UWW in wrestling as the Saudi federation aspires to establish a strong group of male and female players capable of participating in the Olympic events in the coming years.
