Prince William trains with female footballers and plays video games during Saudi visit
RIYADH: Prince William, the Prince of Wales, met female footballers, played video games and chatted with customers at a cafe in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.
On the second day of his three-day tour of the Kingdom, the 43-year-old heir to the British throne visited an urban regeneration project, took part in football drills with local girls’ youth squads, and grabbed a controller for some virtual action at an esports tournament.
Footage from British broadcaster Sky News showed the prince chatting with the young footballers at a sports complex in Riyadh, and showing off his own skills on the pitch as he netted two goals.
He also met the Kingdom’s sports minister, Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Faisal, and the chairperson of the Saudi Esports Federation, Prince Faisal bin Bandar bin Sultan.
