The scope of Green Sports support for sports teams includes greening of football fields with natural or synthetic turf, providing floodlights or water desalination equipment in areas facing water salinity. Over the previous years, the programme contributed to bolster the infrastructure of Omani sport especially football which helped in honing the sports, cultural and social skills of Omani youth. This support has also enabled sports teams to hold various activities in the play yards and contributed to expanding the green spaces across the Sultanate.

The programme aims to develop and provide a sustainable infrastructure for sports fields in Oman. It is a matter of great encouragement that Bank Muscat’s Green Sports programme has so far benefitted 183 teams with over 50,000 team members across the Sultanate of Oman and with yet another 20 teams to be added this year.
