Doha hosts FIG Artistic Gymnastics Technical Committee Meeting

Doha: Qatar continues to strengthen its leading position on the global sports map after the Qatar Gymnastics Federation received renewed confidence from the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) to host the Artistic Gymnastics Technical Committee meeting (men and women) for the second consecutive year.

The meeting will take place in Doha from 7 to 10 February, with the participation of a distinguished group of experts and officials responsible for the development of artistic gymnastics from around the world.

This event comes as a continuation of the growing international trust placed in Qatar by the International Gymnastics Federation, particularly following the significant success achieved by Doha in hosting the FIG Trampoline Gymnastics Technical Committee meeting from 4 to 9 December last year. This success reflects Qatar’s advanced standing in organizing and hosting international technical meetings.

In this context, Mr. Ali Al-Hitmi, President of the Qatar Gymnastics Federation, affirmed that hosting the meeting for the second consecutive year represents a source of great pride for the federation and for Qatari sport as a whole. He noted that this renewed confidence reflects the high level of professionalism within the federation, as well as the strong support extended to sport by the wise leadership.

Al-Hitmi said: “We highly value the trust of the International Gymnastics Federation and consider it a major responsibility to continue developing the gymnastics system in Qatar and strengthening our presence on the international stage, in a manner that serves the sport at both regional and global levels.”

This continued momentum underscores Qatar’s advanced sports infrastructure and world-class facilities, alongside its proven track record in hosting major championships, training camps, and international meetings—further cementing Doha’s status as one of the world’s leading sporting capitals.
