Muscat: In line with the Bank’s commitment to enhancing its leading role in the Social Corporate
Responsibility (CSR) realm, Bank Muscat, the leading financial service provider in the
Sultanate, upholds its commitment to supporting youth sports teams through its annual
Green Sports program across the Sultanate. Recently, the Bank has handed over the
Green Sports field to the Al Abyad Sports Cultural Team from the Wilayat of Nakhal, Al
Batinah South Governorate. The event was held under the patronage of His Excellency
Badr bin Nasser Al Jabri, a member at the State Council, Nakhal, Malik bin Saif Al Subhi,
Head of the Al Abyad Sports Cultural Team, Said bin Ahmed Al Salmi, the Regional
Manager of Meethaq Islamic Banking from Bank Muscat, and a number of officials and
team members.

Speaking on the occasion, Said bin Ahmed Al Salmi, Meethaq Regional Manager, Muscat
Governorate, Bank Muscat, congratulated Al Abyad Sports Cultural Team for the
successful completion of the project. He said: “The Bank is committed to supporting the
modern sports infrastructure across Oman. We hope that the new facility would take
the team to greater heights, improve community bonding, and harness the talent of
Omani youth.

Bank Muscat through its Green Sports program will continue to develop
local sport teams and enhance youth’s talents and foster the sports sector in the
country.”

During the ceremony, Malik bin Saif Al Subhi, Head of the Al Abyad Sports Cultural
Team, Nakhal, expressed his gratitude to Bank Muscat for the Green Sports program,
which has made vital contributions to local sports teams. The newly inaugurated field
will have a positive impact as it would support the team’s infrastructure thereby
enabling us to serve more members within the community.

Bank Muscat’s Green Sports program is one of the leading CSR programs in Oman,
which provides support to local sports teams as part of the Bank’s efforts to develop the
football infrastructure and green spaces throughout the Sultanate of Oman.

The support includes greening of football fields, water desalination and lighting. Since its
inception in 2012, it is a matter of great pride that the Bank Muscat’s Green Sports
program has benefitted 183 teams with over 50,000 team members across Oman.


The Green Sports program reaffirms the Bank Muscat’s commitment to providing
opportunities for young Omanis to develop their talents. During the past period, the
Bank successfully completed multiple sports projects backed with great support in
multiple areas to develop the green sports teams. It goes a long way in developing the
skills and talents of Omani youth on the sporting sphere, aiming to create a more
developed and fostered version of the entire Green Sports program to better serve the
community.
