Shareeda began his youth career at Al-Muharraq's youth sector in the late 1960s, coached by his older brother Rashid.[2] He made his first-team debut in the 1972–73 Bahraini Premier League,[2] becoming a key player for the club by helping them win numerous domestic titles.[2] Sharida retired as a player in 1981, due to injury problems.[2]

International career

Shareeda played for the Bahrain under-20s at the 1973 AFC Youth Championship in Iran.[2] He played for the senior team at the 1974 Asian Games, also in Iran, and at the 3rd Arabian Gulf Cup in 1974, in Kuwait.[2] Due to an injury, he was unable to participate in the 4th Arabian Gulf Cup in Qatar two years later.[2]

Shareeda played the opening game of the 5th Arabian Gulf Cup, held in 1979, against hosts Iraq; this was ultimately his last international game, as he withdrew injured.[2]

Having already coached the Bahrain national team, Sharida was appointed head coach of the Pakistan national team on a one-year contract in October 2005,[3] becoming Pakistan's first head coach from the Gulf region,[3] and the first Bahraini to coach outside of Bahrain.[2] Sharida coached Pakistan at the 2005 SAFF Championship.[3] Pakistan lost some very close games in the 2006 Asian Games, against Japan 3-2 and against the UAE 2–1.[4]

In 2011, Shareeda was coach of the Bahrain Olympic team;[5] he was dismissed in December.[6]
