British athletes could be allowed to compete in future Islamic Solidarity Games

The Islamic Solidarity Games, a quadrennial multi-sport event with 57 participating nations, is considering allowing British athletes to compete in future editions. The organizers have expressed interest in expanding the Games' international audience, which could involve inviting new countries to participate. The current president of the governing body, the Islamic Solidarity Sports Association, is the Saudi sports minister, who is keen to grow the event's global reach. While the prospect of British athletes competing in the Islamic Solidarity Games is described as "interesting to see," no definitive plans have been announced yet. The upcoming edition of the Games is scheduled to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in November.
