Al Khaliji Commercial Bank (al khaliji) recently hosted its Annual Football Tournament, for the fourth year in a row, with the aim of promoting the health and wellness of community members. The initiative was held in support of National Sport Day and came as part of al khaliji’s corporate social responsibility programme, the bank said in a statement.
Held on Saturday at Al Sadd Sports Club, the bank’s five-a-side football tournament saw the participation of teams from several organisations and served as a platform to foster the values of community, sportsmanship and positive team spirit among the participants, the statement noted. The competing teams were from leading institutions such as Qatar Airways, Qatar Petroleum, Nakilat, Q-Chem, Mannai, Gulf English School, Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar, HBK, Doha Insurance, Bima Insurance, Regency Travel & Tours and al khaliji’s team.
Team Gulf English School claimed the first place, while Q-Chem and Qatar Airways came in second and third, respectively.
The football tournament is one of al khaliji’s annual traditions held in the framework of the bank’s community development efforts – by aligning its core values and strategies with Qatar National Vision 2030, the statement adds.
