Aligning with its commitment towards social responsibility, the Qatar Stars League (QSL) announced its sponsorship of Qatar Stars League Schools 2025-2026, organized by the White Oryx Sports Academy dedicated to develop the skills of children and youth in various sports with an emphasis on building physical and mental capabilities and fostering a sense of athletic commitment.

The initiative stems from QSL’s social responsibility to promote the values ​​of sports among all sections of the society, especially children, and to support school football, thereby contributing to expanding the fan base of Qatar football.

Qatar Stars League Schools, which began on November 5 and runs until January, features more than 3,200 students representing 40 schools. Matches are being played at various school venues and the programme includes the attendance and participation of several players from Doha Bank Stars League clubs. This enhances opportunities for positive interaction with students and strengthens their connection to sports and football.

This initiative, which reflects our commitment towards contributing to build a healthy generation connected to sports and football, stems from our deep belief in the importance of school sports in developing students’ skills, fostering a spirit of competition, and instilling the values ​​of co-operation, discipline and teamwork. We, at QSL, are pleased to be part of this ambitious programme. Through our sponsorship, we aim to contribute to discover promising talents and look forward to achieve all objectives of the programme.”

On his part, Mr. Ayman Suleiman, Director of White Oryx Sports Academy, said, “We’re proud to partner with QSL for the launch of QSL Schools League, a first-of-its-kind collaboration for Qatar’s private schools. This partnership represents a significant milestone for school sports in Qatar and demonstrates a shared commitment towards elevating standards, enhancing opportunities and inspiring the next generation of athletes.

“Through our work with QPPSSA and QSL, our aim is to raise the profile and quality of school football, ensuring students experience a structured, competitive and professionally-delivered league that reflects the values of excellence and development.

“By aligning school sport with QSL and its direct pathway to the professional game, we hope to foster a lifelong passion for football among young people and strengthen their connection to Qatar’s vibrant football ecosystem. Together, we’re building a sustainable model that empowers students, enriches school communities and supports the long-term growth of the sport across the country.”
