Abu Dhabi to host 2016 AFC Annual Awards Night ceremony in December

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) will hold its 2016 AFC Annual Awards Night ceremony at the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi on 1st December. The event will be hosted by the United Arab Emirates Football Association (UAEFA) and the Abu Dhabi Sports Council (ADSC) who signed an agreement with the AFC today in Kuala Lumpur at the AFC’s headquarters.

AFC General-Secretary Dato’ Windsor John and UAEFA Secretary-General Mohammed Hazzam Al Dhaheri completed the signing formalities.

This is the second time that the AFC Annual Awards ceremony will be hosted in Abu Dhabi. The first time was in 2006 and it was the first time the event had been held outside Kuala Lumpur.

AFC President Shaikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa said: "The AFC Annual Awards Night is the most prestigious celebration in our yearly calendar and represents the pinnacle of our continent’s achievements.

"Football has grown enormously to command a dominant place in UAE and we are extremely pleased to hold this year’s Annual Awards in the wonderful city of Abu Dhabi," he added.

ADSC General-Secretary Aref Hamad Al Awani said: "It is really great for us to sign this agreement with the AFC to host the 2016 Awards Night.

"Hosting the 2016 Awards Night will have positive effects on UAE football and is another addition to UAE sports which will further enhance Abu Dhabi’s position as a capital for international sport events," he added.

The AFC’s 2015 Annual Awards were held in India’s capital, New Delhi.
