The Games saw the participation of more than 5,000 athletes representing 45 Asian National Olympic Committees, serving as a qualifier for the upcoming Youth Olympic Games in Dakar, Senegal in 2026.
The final Qatari team's participation came in the swimming competitions, where swimmer Hamza Shaalan qualified for the 50-meter breaststroke final after finishing second in the second heat. He ultimately finished eighth in the final with a time of 30.12 seconds.
Thus, Qatar concluded its participation in the Games with a total of four medals: one gold, two silver, and one bronze.
