Team Oman is on the Road to Doha. The national golf team departed for Qatar on Wednesday, 4 November, to represent the Sultanate at the Pan Arab Golf Championship 2026, taking place at Doha Golf Club from 4 to 11 November.
Meet the Omani Delegation
The delegation is led by Ahmed Faisal Al Jahdhami, Secretary General of the Oman Golf Association. Head Coach Jonathan Bartlett and Assistant Coach Fahad Al Kitani lead the technical team.
Representing Oman on the course are Hamood Al Harthi, Badar Al Aamri, Rashad Al Harthy and Nasih Masoud Al Barwani. They will compete against the best amateur golfers in the Arab world for individual and team titles.
A Historic Championship in Qatar
This year's event brings together the 45th Arab Men's Golf Championship and the 17th Arab Women's Golf Championship. It is also the first time that Qatar has hosted the Arab Golf Championships. The event is organised by the Qatar Golf Association under the umbrella of the Arab Golf Federation.
According to the Qatar News Agency, 73 golfers from 14 Arab countries are taking part this year: 52 in the men's championship and 21 in the women's.
Carrying the Momentum of Cairo
Team Oman travels to Doha on the back of a historic year for Omani golf. At the Pan Arab Junior Golf Championship 2026 in Cairo, Oman's young golfers won two gold medals and one silver. Highlights included Ahmed Khalil Al Wahaibi's U21 individual gold and the U21 team gold, a first in the history of Omani golf.
Several members of the Doha delegation were also part of that success, including Head Coach Jonathan Bartlett and Assistant Coach Fahad Al Kitani. They now bring the same ambition to the senior stage: to compete with the best in the Arab world and fly the Omani flag high.
The Road Ahead
The programme in Doha starts with two practice rounds on 5 and 6 November, followed by the official opening ceremony. Competition begins on 7 November, and the championship concludes with the final round, closing ceremony and awards on 10 November.
The Oman Golf Association wishes the whole team the very best of luck. Follow our updates throughout the week as Team Oman takes on the Pan Arab Golf Championship 2026.
