Doha Bank was one of the top participating institutions in the 3km run organised by the Qatar Central Bank yesterday and was recognised with a trophy for its outstanding efforts. This is the third year in a row that Doha Bank has been honoured with a trophy.

Doha Bank had 140 staff from all levels of the organisation, including members of its executive management team, participating in various categories in this year’s 3km run held on the Doha Corniche to mark National Sport Day.

Doha Bank’s team members finished the QCB run in prominent positions with a total of 10 participants finishing in top places in the men’s and women’s races. Doha Bank received the Gold Trophy for scoring the most overall points among the participating organisations.

QCB Governor Sheikh Abdulla bin Saud al-Thani presented the trophy to CEO Dr R Seetharaman.

“In addition to our own annual Al Dana Green Run, the QCB’s 3km run is one of the most anticipated community sporting events for our staff and we are extremely proud of their achievements,” Dr Seetharaman said.

This year, Doha Bank also instituted its own prizes to recognise staff achievements during the QCB marathon, with prizes distributed to the best performers after the race. The prizes were given to the top five male and female finishers in three categories: 18-30, 31-45 and 46-60 years.

The 3km QCB run drew hundreds of participants representing various banks and financial institutions in Qatar.
