Sven Van Beek
Sven is a Scandinavian masculine first name. In Old Norse the meaning was "young man" or "servant" and the original Old Norse spelling was ''sveinn''. Variants such as '' Svend'' are found in Danish and Norwegian. Another variant, '' Svein'' is used only in the Low Countries and German-speaking countries, and is cognate with the English surname '' Swain''. In medieval Swedish, ''sven'' or ''sven av vapen'' "sven of arms", is a term for squire. The female equivalent, Svenja, though seemingly Dutch and Scandinavian, is not common anywhere outside of German-speaking countries. Sven can also be spelled with a "w" - Swen - but is pronounced as Sven. The Icelandic version is ''Sveinn'' (); the Faroese version is Sveinur ().

Al-Shamal SC
Al-Shamal Sports Club () is a Qatari multi-sports club based in Madinat ash Shamal. Al-Shamal was founded in 1980. Its football team competes in the Qatar Stars League, the top tier of the national football league system. History Mohammed bin Badr Al-Sadah founded the club in 1980. Al-Sadah started his football administration career as a member of the Al Sadd Board of Directors in 1972, before founding and serving as the first president of Al-Shamal in 1980. With very few resources at their disposal, the team played its early matches on dirt pitches. The team's results in matches were sub-par initially, leading to the administration prioritising youth development. This led to the emergence of players such as Adnan Abdullah, the first Al-Shamal player to compete with the Qatar national team, and Jassim Al Muhaiza, who achieved the rare feat of playing for three age categories of the Qatar national team in one season. The team's first coach was former Zamalek player Samir Kotb. ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
