Farah Leila Sabbagh

Coached boxing for nine years in Riyadh

🇸🇦 Riyadh, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Mount Pleasant Swimming Club
Since 2017
English, Arabic

I've coached boxing at Mount Pleasant Swimming Club since 2017. Most of my players were between 12 and 17, and a lot of them turned into friends for life. Practice always ended with the same rule: nobody walks home alone. I'm always reading two books at once.
