The tournament comes as an additional under stc’s 2024 Ramadan campaign called “With good, we go further” in line with the Company’s extensive corporate social responsibility program.
The Al Qabas Padel tournament will begin on March 14th with the finals taking place on March 22nd at the Al Yousifi Football Courts in Dasman.

Our strategic partnership with Al Qabas aspires to nurture the upcoming athletes within this sport, providing them with a platform to truly showcase their athletic abilities amongst a live audience. Aside from our sponsorship role, we look forward to greeting athletes and attendees at our pavilion where we will be hosting a variety of exciting programs and activities. This initiative strongly aligns with one of the key pillars under our CSR strategy, with a focus on empowering the younger generation and Kuwait’s sports community.

Based on our experience in sponsoring the previous tournaments, the lively atmosphere and competitive nature of the tournament will surely bring a cheerful crowd that will add to the vibrant environment on the courts. At stc, we are keen to participate in events that enrich the social fabric in Kuwait, presenting entertainment opportunities in family-oriented settings.
