Doha: Al Shamal SC yesterday revealed an ambitious pre-season program as the club looks to build on last season’s impressive run.
The team will kick off their preparations for the 2025-26 campaign with a training camp in Doha from July 1 before heading to the Netherlands for an intensive overseas camp.
Scheduled to run from July 17 to August 5, the Dutch camp will include three friendlies set for July 22, July 30, and August 4. The crucial fixtures are aimed at sharpening the squad ahead of the upcoming season. The rigorous itinerary reflects the club’s intent to maintain momentum after a commendable sixth-place finish in the Qatar Stars League last season, along with quarter-final appearances in both the Amir Cup and the Ooredoo Cup.
As they gear up to resume action, Al Shamal have also extended the contract of experienced goalkeeper Omar Bari through to 2026, signaling their faith in the veteran custodian’s leadership.
Al Shamal will kick off their Qatar Stars League campaign on August 14 with a clash against Al Ahli at the Khalifa International Stadium.
