Bahrain had a remarkable run at the four-day regional competition in the capital of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, where the team could bring 7 medals in total – 5 gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze.

BOC secretary general Mohammed Al Nusuf, along with Bahrain Martial Arts Federation president Ahmed Al Khayyat, presented the awards to the team at a special reception ceremony held at the committee premises in Seef.
