Emirates Bank extended its support to the meDRIVE Angels Softball Team by sponsoring the team for the fourth consecutive year.

Mr. Louis Scotto, Emirates Bank’s General Manager- Retail Banking commented on the occasion by saying, “Emirates Bank is a strong supporter of UAE sports in its many variations.  We are excited about lending our support for yet another year to such a highly-spirited team of talented athletes.  Emirates Bank would like to be recognized as a fierce competitor in its league and enjoys the association with an equally fierce competitor in its league, the meDRIVE Angels.  We continue to cheer for the meDRIVE Angels and look forward to a spectacular performance at the Spring 2006 Middle East Softball Championships at the end of this month.”

Coached by John Larson, the meDRIVE Angels softball team is comprised of ladies residing in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.  The players originate from a number of countries to include: Canada, USA, South Africa, France, England, Scotland and Australia.  Many of the players have played the game throughout their lives, whilst others have only taken up the sport since residing in the UAE.  The team is well respected throughout the league as a fun, and hardworking team with a great attitude on and off the field.

With probably the strongest team they have assembled in years, the meDRIVE Angels have decided to form a team for the Spring 2006 Middle East Softball Championships.  The championships will be held at the Metropolitan Hotel from the 25th – 28th April.
