Commercial Bank of Qatar seeks to develop next generation golfers

The Commercial Bank of Qatar has entered into an arrangement with the Education City Golf Club
(ECGC) to help the next generation of golfers to evolve through development of golf projects for youth and women.

Participation in golf is linked to a wide range of physical, emotional, social and cognitive benefits that can last well into adulthood; it is possible to play golf for life. It is important to develop an appreciation of the game at a young age and the goal is to build an early commitment to playing golf with the youth of Qatar, a press released issued here said.

Commercial Bank will also introduce over 100 new women to golf in the private coaching area at
Education City Golf Club. The aim is to encourage healthy participation in sport and develop a
community of women golfers in Qatar.

Other initiatives also include a special series of Commercial Bank Qatar Masters Qualifiers, as members of ECGC will be given the opportunity to qualify for the 2021 Qatar Masters Pro AM to play alongside the European Tour professionals, with a series of exciting Qualifying events.

Speaking on behalf of Commercial Bank, Hussain al-Abdulla, EGM Chief Marketing Officer, said:
“Commercial Bank is excited to be partnering with Education City Golf Club, to develop the future of golf in Qatar. Part of our CSR strategy is to develop women in sport and starting with golf we feel it will add benefit to the community with the low impact outdoor sport. We are also excited to be planning the 2021 Qatar Masters and we hope we can continue with our annual event as planned.”

Part of Commercial Banks partnership will include the Qatar Masters, a tournament that is considered
Qatar’s annual ‘must-attend’ sporting and social event, first held in 1998 and widely known for bringing together the world’s best golf talent; the likes of Sergio Garcia, Rory Mcllroy, Adam Scott, Justin Rose,Ernie Els and Henrik Stenson have all competed in past years.

The Commercial Bank partnership with Education City aims to support and emphasise community and
family activities as it aims to encourage young Qataris to take up the sport and to grow the game of golf in Qatar.

In representation of Education City Golf Club, the General Manager Michael Braidwood stated: “Our
commitment to developing golf amongst the youth and women has been a priority of ours since our
infancy. The golf programs we have developed are designed to encourage new golfers and help them
quickly progress to playing on a golf course. We are grateful to Commercial Bank for their support and commitment in helping develop the sport of golf here in Qatar.”
