Home Arena When Al Ahly created handball, basketball, and volleyball teams, they believed it was incumbent upon them to erect an arena to host the home games. In 1978, they were low on funding. Because of this, the project was postponed. Later, on February 4, 1994, Al Ahly opened his sports hall officially in time of Al Ahly Chairman Saleh Selim.
Opening Ceremony After many years of waiting, Al Ahly finally achieved his dream of having his very own sports hall arena. On February 4, 1994, Al Ahly officially opened his arena in grand fashion. The ceremony started with words from then-incumbent Al Ahly chairman, Saleh Selim. With this speech, he declared that the name of the hall would be the "Prince Abdalla El Faisl Hall" because of the role he played in creating Al Ahly.
