Carrefour Qatar announced its support and sponsorship of the first-ever school football tournament yesterday, which is being organised by the Education Above All Foundation (EAA).
The event will take place today, March 10, at Doha College campus, where 34 schools will compete at the ‘Goals4Good’ tournament consisting of a football and art competition to support selected EAA Foundation projects aiming to help the world’s most vulnerable and marginalised children.
Carrefour Qatar recognises education as a critical cornerstone for societal progress. As such, sponsoring the school tournament presents an opportunity for them to showcase its unwavering commitment and close ties to the community.
In addition, this sponsorship reinforces the strategic partnership between Carrefour Qatar and the EAA Foundation for three consecutive years, and embodies the true spirit of collaboration. Through this partnership over the last three years, Carrefour Qatar reached a significant milestone by collecting more than QR10 million in donations for the benefit of the EAA Foundation’s Together programme.
The EAA’s first-ever football tournament for boys and girls will witness the participation of 34 public and private school teams in three different age categories. Each school team will play three matches to qualify to play in the semi-finals and conclude with a final match, to win the first-ever EAA’s Football Tournament 2023.
