In continuation of its commitment to promoting a healthy lifestyle among its staff and the community, the Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels in Doha has kicked off the National Sports Day festivities.

The National Sports Day celebrations come pursuant to an Emiri decree in 2011 that sets the second Tuesday of February each year as a national holiday to promote a healthy lifestyle. Keen on promoting physical activities among its staff members, Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels encouraged its employees to embrace exercise throughout the year in view of its importance in everyone’s lives and its rewarding effects on both body and mind.

Qatar National Sport Day brings the entire country together with a vision of encouraging more active lifestyle for all Qataris and residents alike.  

To celebrate the occasion, Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels organised a variety of activities and events for employees as well as preparing a healthy lunch for staff to educate them about the importance of maintaining a healthy and balanced diet. Moreover, the group launched the National Sports Day special offers with up to 50 per cent discount on Gym membership for new customers in order to revitalise the body and mind during the month of February.

“The annual National Sports Day is a confirmation of Qatar’s promotion of a healthy lifestyle and its strong presence in the world sports arena. We at Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels seek to promote an active lifestyle throughout the year, as having a healthy population is one of the tenets of Qatar National Vision 2030,” said Hafidh Al Busaidy, cluster general manager of Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels. - TradeArabia News Service
