QCB and QIIB engage in sporting, wellbeing activities

Doha, Qatar: QIIB participated in the activities organised by Qatar Central Bank (QCB) on the occasion of National Sport Day of the State, in a scene reflecting the Bank’s commitment to entrenching a culture of sport as a healthy and sustainable lifestyle within Qatari society.

The activities witnessed wide participation from QIIB’s senior management and employees, and included a variety of competitions such as running, football, volleyball, tennis and other sports, held in a positive and interactive atmosphere aimed at enhancing physical activity, fostering team spirit, and translating the values embodied by National Sports Day as a unifying national occasion that invites all segments of society to practise sport and care for public
health.

On this occasion, QIIB was keen to invite its customers and followers through its digital platforms and social media channels to adopt a healthy lifestyle and practise sport regularly, given its direct impact on improving quality of life and enhancing community productivity.

Through its strategy and presence in various sports-supporting activities, QIIB views National Sports Day as an important national milestone through which it affirms that sport is not a seasonal event, but a way of life reflecting society’s awareness of the importance of physical and mental health, and reinforcing positive human interaction among different segments of the community.

Qatar has succeeded in building an integrated sports ecosystem combining advanced infrastructure, professional organisation and the hosting of major international tournaments, which has been directly reflected in community sport and the spread of healthy lifestyles among citizens and residents.

QIIB views its support for sport as an integral part of its social responsibility. Accordingly, the Bank is keen to sponsor and participate in many national sporting events and activities, foremost among them the sponsorship of the national teams and the Amir Cup for three years, in addition to sponsoring the Arab Cup, and supporting prominent sports institutions such as Al Shaqab and Al Gharafa Club, as well as other initiatives and events that contribute to developing Qatari sport and strengthening its presence locally and regionally.

These orientations are consistent with Qatar National Vision 2030, which places people at the forefront of development priorities and emphasises building a healthy, productive society capable of engaging with future requirements.

At the conclusion of the activities, participating QIIB employees expressed their happiness in taking part in the National Sports Day events organised by Qatar Central Bank, stressing that the occasion represents an opportunity to enhance team spirit, renew energy, and entrench a culture of health awareness within and beyond the workplace.
