The event was attended by showjumpers from across local clubs, as well as crowds of equestrian enthusiasts and fans.
During the final ceremony, Kuwait Equestrian Federation Chairman Masoud Johar Hayat honored Zain Kuwait’s Chief Corporate Affairs and Relations Officer Waleed Al Khashti in recognition of the company’s support to this competition since its inception. Ali Al Kharafi emerged as champion of the competition’s second season, which kicked-off late last year.
Zain is proud to have supported this unique local sporting event, which the company participated in for the second consecutive year in collaboration with the KEF. Zain’s support came under its corporate sustainability strategy towards shouldering Kuwaiti sports and youth. The company is a strong believer in the talents and capabilities of the nation’s young athletes, especially those who are passionate about equestrian sports, which are deep rooted in Kuwaiti, Arab, and Islamic identities.
The second season of the KEF’s Showjumping Tour (2022-2023) featured hundreds of showjumpers who represented public and private equestrian clubs from across the nation. The tour featured many competitions held across various clubs, including the Hunting and Equestrian Club, Kuwait Riding Center, and Messilah Equestrian Club.
Zain is always keen on supporting sports programs and official competitions hosted in Kuwait with the aim of elevating the Kuwaiti sports scene. The company strongly believes that the private sector has a vital role in progressing sports and youth initiatives, and it makes this belief a reality by shouldering similar events.
As a leading private sector company in Kuwait, Zain is constantly looking to identify and support excellence across the sports sector. The company will continue to put Kuwaiti sports and athletes at the forefront of its priorities and pledges to continue motivating them to achieve all the recognition and support they deserve.
