Ramadan Sports Festival 2019More than 1,000 participants are expected to take part in various group and individual competitions that will form part of the schedule for the 2019 Ramadan Sports Festival. Reaching capacity of the men’s football tournament early on shows the level of local anticipation ahead of the festival.

Under the group category, 16 teams have confirmed their participation in the men’s football tournament. The basketball, volleyball and futsal competitions will be held for males only and 12 teams will participate in each competition. Handball and basketball competitions will feature six teams in each category. Hockey tournaments will be available for both men and women.

It is expected that the individual competitions will attract a large number of participants, coming from all age groups. This consists of youth fitness competitions, women’s fitness, wall climbing tournament and Aspire Dome walking.

AZF has also organised table tennis activities for persons with disabilities in various categories.

The success of previous years has motivated AZF to increase and diversify its activities to better accommodate as many segments of Qatari society as possible. Not only during Ramadan, but also throughout the year.
