Our President & CEO, Mr. Fahad Abunayyan, attended Polo Al Marsa Qatar 2025, the inaugural world-class polo event held in Doha at the iconic Old Doha Port.
Mr. Fahad played an instrumental role in supporting the introduction of polo in Qatar, a journey that began three years ago during his visit to Doha alongside Mr. Rory Heron. The successful launch of the event reflects the growing cooperation between Saudi Arabia and Qatar to advance polo regionally and strengthen cultural and sporting ties across the Gulf.
Presented by the Qatar Polo Club in partnership with the Social & Sport Contribution Fund (DAAM) and featured on the official Qatar Calendar, the event attracted more than 3,000 spectators, including VIPs, dignitaries, and polo enthusiasts.
The championship brought together international players and emerging local talent in a dynamic, spectator-focused format. Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani crowned Team Lusail as champions of Polo Al Marsa Qatar 2025, while Team Doha received the runners-up trophy from Mr. Saad Ali Al-Kharji, Chairman of Qatar Tourism.
Following the strong success of its inaugural edition, organizers have confirmed that Polo Al Marsa Qatar will return in 2026, further reinforcing Qatar’s growing presence on the international polo stage.
