Why we Select this Project?

To spread vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin

Zayed Al Nahyan.
Our idea comes from there are many families in UAE

spend their free time in sopping center (mall) specially in

weekend. So, they can leave their children in jiu-jitsu gym
when their parents are busy in supermarket or shops.
Thus, this idea expect to increase number of participating.
To increase number of participating especially of parents,

children (below 12 years) and female students.

Why we Select this Project?

We are civil engineers group and we want able to apply

our theory knowledge in best practical way.

To implement our project based on project management

process, and best benefits taken from businessman Dr.

Ahmed AlTamimi.

Questionnaire
We distribute a 100 questionnaire sheet at weekend

(Thursday, Friday, Saturday) in shopping center (mall) in

Abu Dhabi city and Al Ain city.

The two slides below show the sample of questionnaire in

both Arabic and English.

Results
1. The results of questionnaire is positive. It confirms that

the people prefer to participate in jiu-jitsu sport in

shopping center (mall) more than in sport club.
2. The participating number of female is less than male

and also the number of parents participating is low. So,

we should send message awareness to all parents (be
notice: there is no fees).
3. We want to send an indirect message to all existing

shopping center (mall) to build an extension part (gym)

for jiu-jitsu sport.
