western shore of the Arabian Gulf. It has many
good fishing grounds, extensive coral reefs. The

Diving, swimming and Sailing.

day we went to the rafting center. It was my first
time to try such thing.

professional life

7. Leadership
In rafting, each member should
learn how to be a leader. When
to decide to switch sides, or
when to raft strongly to move
the boat if it’s stuck to a rock
and also when to take breaks.
Moreover, it’s very important
to be a leader on the rafting
boat because if a member fell
down in the river me ,as a
leader, supposed to decide
when and how to save that
member.

9. Confidence
• After the rafting round, you get an amazing
feeling full of confidence that nothing is
impossible and a boost in your self esteem
from the skills you learned.

11. Strategic Thinking • strategic thinking is needed
while planning the route and
the movement of the boat.
While in the boat, you should
expect many unexpected
factors that may occur out of a
sudden. The change in the
climate, the wind direction and
the stones that may bump into
the boat while peddling. All of
those factors need strategic
thinking to know exactly the
decision needed to save the
boat from flipping over and to
prevent the members from
injuries.
