DOHA: The organising committee of the sixth Qatar Falcons and Hunting Festival postponed the first round of Dau competition yesterday due to bad weather conditions.

The committee said the decision to defer the contest was to give the same chance to all participants. The first round of Dau has been moved to Friday morning. The committee has urged participants to be at the venue at 6am. Meanwhile, it has announced that the free Qarnas competition will be held this evening. The Peninsula
