Ooredoo will be once again teaming up with legendary football club Paris-Saint Germain, as it hosts its annual football clinic in Oman on 21 and 22 April. In its third year, the hugely popular clinic will invite 200 of Oman’s brightest young aspiring football stars, including youngsters from the Al Wafa Social Centre, to try out, under the watchful eye of the French Premier League’s expert trainers.

 Ahead of the Clinic, Ooredoo will be scouting for talent at a series of pre-selection weekend events at Muscat Grand Mall. The first session will be on 7 and 8 April between 6 and 9pm and the second session will take place on 14 and 15 April also between 6 and 9pm. All football fans aged six to sixteen are invited to come along, showcase their skills, and try out for a place on the squad.

“At Ooredoo we believe in nurturing and caring for youth and giving them the opportunity to reach for their dreams. We are very much looking forward to building on the tremendous success of the last two years as we welcome back our good friends from the top French club and give the lucky young players an unforgettable experience,” said Kumail Al Moosawi, Chief People and Corporate Affairs Officer at Ooredoo.

He added: “The Paris-Saint Germain coaches have an intensive programme planned. They have already indicated that they will be working on a range of skills and techniques as well as sharing top professional tips and advice. And while the coaching team will be on the lookout for future champions, they will also use the power of football to inspire the young players to live a healthy lifestyle and to work for ambitious goals not just on the pitch but in everything they do in life.”

Strongly committed to developing the youth of Oman through sport, Ooredoo is proud to support and sponsor a variety of sporting initiatives as part of its active family focused programme of corporate social responsibility in towns and cities across the sultanate.
