Hello everyone,

The Olympic Games are now just a few days away and we would like to talk about sports.

What sports are the most popular and/or unusual in Qatar?

Are sports facilities easily accessible there? Where and how can one find sports clubs in the region?

Are there sports events regularly held in the country?

And you? What is your favourite sport? Which one(s) do you practice in Qatar?

Thank you in advance,

Priscilla

Hi.. i think Qatar is interest for football but also for olympic sport.. don't forget there is here in Qatar day off  each year coz of sport day.but it is a little hard to do the sport you like easly here. For me my favorite sport is football as a goal keeper and i play in my country jetski but it is rare to find it here.

Hi Debsky

I share your love for tennis. I too have not been playing and my reasons are lack of 'cooler' time and lack of motivation. We might motivate each other.

We have two tennis court in our compound. Let me know if you would like to play sometime.

Evening is nice. Weekends are best but not a requirement.

Thanks
