04 — MEET OUR FOUNDER
The person behind
the vision.
My name is Zhwan Ali and I’m a swimmer and the founder of Kurdistan Athletes. Growing up, I experienced the challenges of pursuing sports without enough support, guidance, or opportunities.
I created Kurdistan Athletes to help athletes connect with coaches, sponsors, and opportunities to grow, because I believe every athlete deserves a chance to achieve their dreams.
