Israelis are currently not allowed to come here to Dubai. Also, the Camels are really no more than a rec team. A friend of mine helped to set up hockey after a stint in Boston where he played and then went back to the UAE. The UAE does have a national side that play in Div 3 ( I think) of the IIHF. There is a league and ex Jarri Kurri was here a couple of years ago encouraging youngsters to start to play. A few Russian teams use Dubai and other parts of the other Emirates to train in the off season as the facilities here are so good. So if you are ever in Dubai, you can still get your hockey fix ( Shop and watch hockey at the Dubai Mall )
