Ice hockey in the desert: Will fans warm to the sport in the UAE?
(CNN) -- At first glance, the UAE seems ill-suited to ice hockey.
The country boasts summer temperatures of up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (48 degrees Celsius),
and the only snow and ice to be found is usually in fabricated form in a shopping mall.
Despite the country's many disadvantages in championing the cold-weather sport,
in 2010 the UAE became the first Arab nation to play in an International Ice Hockey Federation
world championship. Granted, they finished last, but that hasn't dampened the enthusiasm of
the handful of Emiratis who have taken to the sport.
“I feel so proud, so proud to be representing the country,”says Mohamed Aref Al Jachi,
a founding member of the UAE's national ice hockey team.
The first time Al Jachi saw snow was five years ago. Now, he trains with his team
four nights a week at the Abu Dhabi ice rink.
Coaches from Canada and Belarus -- two ice hockey heavyweight nations -- are helping
the team learn the right moves. The process isn't always straightforward.
