Hi!

I'm new in Qatar and I'm looking into joining women's basketball team, If you have information on tryouts or any women's basketball event I can be part of here in doha please let me know..

Thanks!

without being pessimist, it would be interesting to know...how many of these girls are actually QATARIS?

-------------------------------------------------------

Whenever I find the KEY to SUCCESS...Someone STEALS it.

To the one incharge of the game basketball-may I know your website?. Is it possible for other nationality or asians who is pretty much interested to be part of the booming game? Well not necessarily to play atleast be part of the trainig maybe.

"edifis said Why are they not wearing Abayas and stilettos?"

Now you are pushing your luck....... LOLLLLLLLL

Peace

It was amazing to know that, basketball women is existing in Qatar. The first time I arrive here in Qatar-the first time I enquire about was 'Is basketball women played here in Qatar'? I was hoping to watch one. Back home when I was in college I was a Team Captain-basketball women although I stand 4'11. Height doesn't matter-I was the "point guard". I wish I could extend my help and be a part of the team here or at least be given an opportunity to watch one. To the players- kip it up and goodluck on all your games!!!!!!!

if you enquire at the womens centre at aspire they should be able to give you a schedule. As far as I know they havent finalised the team yet even so things could take some time. I'll be following so as soon as i have any information i'll post it on here for common knowledge of others. It's going to be an amazing season. I know that they've taken a few players from ireland and egypt.....Good Luck Qatar. We're behind you 100% ladies!!!!!!!

Where can I get a schedule of games played in Doha, along with where the games are being played.

Thanks!

Henry

hey guys,

I have a friend who coaches basketball at aspire for kids. she's playing on the national team this year. as far as i know if they like your skills and they want you its not an issue of height or nationality. all they will do is give you the passport so you can play. if anyone is really interesed in the national team then i can ask her for details. as far as i know its all arranged by aspire womens sports centre. just provate message me. but training starts in september during ramadan. it takes place for 2 hours 3 times a week i think like 4.30 - 6.30 on normal days. ramadan training will obviously ake place after iftar. so you gotta be able to commit.

thanks

Hi QL girls what do u think if we make our basketball team and play time to time no need to be tall to join this will be for fun!

i think its very good for a nation. to promote a business.

I think,this is good start for bad finish.

qatar is indeed great..

i knew about the qatar women cricket team

and now the basketball team of women.. great

cheers to the team

-------------------------------------------------------

i want to learn until i die, if u have some knowledge then share it with me.

-------------------------------------------------------

wow! go girls...cool pic :)

i wish i was there...

THEY SHOULD CONSIDER ALSO THE HEIGHT OF THEIR PLAYERS. BALANCE THE TEAM, THEY HAVE SMALL GUYS BUT THEY ARE FAST AND THEY HAVE ALSO BIG GUYS TO REBOUND AND CONTROL THE GAME. AND THEY HAVE THE CORRECT PRACTICE AND REGULAR EXERCISE.

lol

You can't teach experience...

Does it make sense if people are asking for simple information as to how to join a qatari basketball team but cannot be helped by anybody on this forum with basic info?? Piple,learn to hlp

Basketball is also a good Team Building activity. It fosters interdependence on one another, teamwork, camaraderie and sportsmanship. It helps release stresses from work and develop a good interpersonal and working relationship with one another.

im really a big fan of basketball .. can i join ?

wer can i find that place?

can i join??

i love basketball ever!!

GOGOGo girls..

I Love Qater

lol at some of the comments...some people REALLY need to get a life!:/

--------------------------------------------------

I dont go with the flow, I let the flow come to me.

helo my dear fren..i used to play basketball as well..im only 5ft and my height is not a hindrance for me to play this kind of game...if i got a chance to them)the girls basketball team..i conclude that i will join to their group)..did u tried to watch them personally?

thank's for reading that's all!

jam

wow!! Congradulaitons for your new great levitation and outstanding achievement that ever had in our dreams the participation of Qatari Girls in action. Keep it up!!

Good work girls!!! I noticed that these are not all women...I believe one of them is a girl??? I mean that person in the middle of the basketball court is like too short to be in the team, don't you think?

Team building consultants

PMSL Edifis, thats very amusing! Aimoon, get over yourself, love...

The inspiration!

The Flying Qatari

A lot of Hardwork went into it. She led the way and made all Qatari girls believe that they can make it one day....

To the person in-charged of this women basketball team here in qatar.

Is their any updates regarding who can play the said sport here in doha? and who can be legitimate members on it?

thanks and regards..

Hello everyone..

Actually im a fan of basketball, and i played it before..

hahaha those were the days..

i knew some friends who had a high level of playing skills in terms of basketball..

thats why, i wanted to know who are allowed to play..

Goodluck Girls..

Keep it up!

God bless..

...and hope we can get more and more locals (men and women alike) to participate in different kinds of sports...

...so that Qatar may never 'hire expatriates' to do their 'job' for every Olympics events. LOL

Its very nice to know tht such sports are happening in Qatar and tht too its women.Even i would like to play basketball.I dont know how to play BUT I'M REALLY INTERESTED IN LEARNING IT.

hATS OFF TO THESE LADIES.KEEP ROCKING

luv to watch...please more info

I know ;)

how can someone be a player of the Qatar women's basketball team!!!any ideas???

who knows, supernurse?

cynbob, unfortunately these girls are going no further than the GCC.......

Hoop it up girls!!!

WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) has a great following in the US. There about 12 teams. My hometown favorite, the Houston Comets, sadly suspended operations this year. That is unfortunate because women's basketball is very entertaining.

I guess I know who to cheer for now!

are they still wearing the cover in the head while playing? interesting. isnt it bothering their view?

cheers to those ladies!!

Why are they not wearing Abayas and stilettos?

Nice post. :)

I remember many years ago when my sister was placed on our school's boys basketball team because she was the only girl interested in playing...and a few other schools, including the French School I believe, had the same issue.

To see a full-fledged womens team for Qatar (not just a local high school) that actually PLAYS WELL is more proof of how far womens' sports have come here in the past 20 years. Represent! :D

Greeker, I apologise.....i may take the mickey but it'll be me that is giving them love and attention should they be injured....that makes me feel better ;)

And another wonderful hijack...

Ladies, I was there, and the team really did well. This lady who posted the topic should have been among those screaming fans...

Cuteydog and Supernurse, You two going off on a tangent... I think you defeat the purpose altogether. It's a sad thing that every topic has to be thus hijacked with useless drivel...

Please, just give credit where it's due. These girls are pioneer in their own rights. Even if you don't respect them, please dont abuse them.

Just think about it. Thanks.

I notice that the woman in the middle looks all of 2 foot tall, forgive me, but don't you have to be over 7 foot to play basketball?
