Practice summray # 1

          There was many horsemen patrol who wanted to keep the peace in Al Awafi desert. The horsemen were looking for areas outside the urban areas like what they do in each of the emirates. Horse Patrols is not a new thing in the area because it was performed by the tribes themselves. There, horses and riders must learn not to get upset by anything especially people or loud sounds and learn how to control themselves. The typical horsemen are usually small and lightweight, and patrols on Arabian horses. Most of the horsemen are from India, however, the supervising colonel is from Emirates. He is trying to recruit some Emiratis, but he fails. The patrols don't work in the summer but he works in the winter and school breaks because a lot of people come to enjoy watching the desert. Also, the horsemen help the police in the area in order to stop the criminal. Some horse patrols have an important role at going where only horses can go. The riders should take care of their horses and protect them.
