Notably, she was one of four Arab footballers among 30 international players who participated in the highest-altitude football match in history at Mt. Kilimanjaro, a feat that earned her a place in the Guinness World Records. In 2018, Haneen and her colleagues succeeded in bringing the initiative to Jordan and organizing the lowest-altitude football match in history at the Dead Sea. Beyond the game itself, the initiative successfully conducted four football clinics in different rural areas of Jordan, benefitting nearly 700 young girls. This match also earned a Guinness World Record recognition. Since then, Haneen has continued her work in national and international institutions in the field of sport and development, striving to empower and create a brighter future for local coaches, physical education teachers, and youth.
