According to a forecaster, weather condi- tions here are largely dependent on wind direction. If the wind blows from the south- ern regions, the mercury rises two to three degrees Celsius, as is happening now. The wind today is blowing from the southeast. However, when the wind changes direction and is north-westerly, it brings along chill and the temperature drops, said the forecaster. “The winter isn’t over yet.” The maximum temperature these days is between 25 and 29 degrees Celsius, depend- ing on the area in the country, while the minimum ranges between 13 and 17 degrees Celsius. In Doha, the maximum today is fore- cast at 27 degrees, and the minimum at 17 degrees. Abu Samra, located near Qatar’s border with Saudi Arabia, and which recently wit- nessed the coldest days and nights during the last chilly spell, will have a maximum temperature of 29 degrees Celsius and a low of 13 degrees today, the forecast said. Al Khor in the north, on the other hand, is expected to have day temperatures run- ning up to 26 degrees Celsius today, while at night the mercury will drop to 14 degrees. The forecast for Al Wakra is a noon tem- perature of 25 degrees Celsius and a mini- mum of 15 degrees.

In the intervening years, Qatar has grown into a major sporting hub, attracting international events such as the World Indoor Athletics Championships, the Asian Football Confederation Asian Cup, the 24th Men’s Handball World Championship, and the AIBA World Boxing Championship. With ever-more prestigious international events on the horizon, including the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the 2023 FINA World Championships, sport continues to play a pivotal role in and around Qatar, while greatly contributing to the country’s infrastructural development. The sports sector delivers many local and international benefits, which are allowing Qatar to strengthen relations with nations worldwide. And, in an effort to consolidate the country’s commitment to the sporting industry, a Sports Sector Strategy (SSS) was developed as one of the 14-sector strategies within the Qatar National Vision 2030. Given the strategic importance of sports to Qatar’s economy, the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) developed for the very first time since its establishment this study as an insightful overview into the nation’s sporting ecosystem, highlighting its flourishing business opportunities.
