Algiers, Algeria | In a resounding tribute to his unwavering commitment to youth empowerment and continental sports advancement, President Abdelmadjid Tebboune was honored Tuesday evening with the gold medal of the Association of National Olympic Committees of Africa (ACNOA). The accolade, presented at the closing ceremony of the inaugural African School Games (JSA) held at the 19 May Stadium in Annaba, stands as a profound recognition of the Algerian Head of State’s strategic vision and steadfast support for grassroots athletic development across Africa.

Representing President Tebboune at the ceremony were Minister of Youth and Sports, Walid Sadi, Minister of National Education, Mohamed Seghir Sadaoui, and Minister of Youth in charge of the High Council for Youth, Mustapha Hidaoui. The high-level delegation reflected the Algerian government’s institutional alignment with the President’s resolute dedication to fostering a generation of disciplined, skilled, and visionary young athletes.

Speaking on behalf of the African Olympic movement, ACNOA officials praised President Tebboune’s “instrumental contribution to the resounding success of the first edition of the African School Games and his far-sighted decision to revive school sports as a foundation for the discovery and cultivation of young talent.” They further hailed his exemplary leadership in placing youth development at the heart of national and continental priorities.

“The 1st African School Games have laid a robust groundwork in Algeria for the continuous training and support of emerging athletes,” ACNOA declared. “Thanks to President Tebboune’s proactive engagement, these Games have created a fertile environment for African youth to flourish and emerge as the future stars who will bring honor and pride to the continent on the global stage.”

Held from July 26 to August 5, the inaugural edition of the JSA brought together young athletes from across the continent in a celebration of excellence, solidarity, and hope. Algeria’s hosting of the event marked not only a logistical success, but also a political statement — reaffirming its status as a beacon of Pan-Africanism and a champion of continental integration through sport.
