Qatar’s National Sport day is a national holiday held annually on the second Tuesday in February, with the aim of promoting a healthy lifestyle nationwide. Qatar is one of the few countries to dedicate a day for sports, and the residents of Qatar celebrate this special day enthusiastically embracing special physical activities.
The first National Sport Day was held in 2012 and was designated for sporting endeavors by the citizens of Qatar. The day’s main purpose is to promote sports and to educate the local population on ways to reduce health risks associated with an inactive lifestyle, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes.
Many government ministries and private sector companies organize hundreds of activities and sport day events for employees and the general public. Activities range from football to basketball, tennis to taekwondo, cycling to swimming, with countless free sporting sessions and social competitions, available to all.
