DOHA: Aspire training camps attract athletes from around the world, helping to demonstrate sports ability to bridge cultures. This year, Aspire Zone Foundation (AZF) has high hopes for further success in using sport to bring people together.
Aspire Zone offers a memorable experience during its training camps by allowing members of the public to watch their favourite stars training from just a few meters away, and the chance to collect autographs from world-class footballers.
During the winter months, the temperature is moderate and rarely exceeds 25 degrees Celsius. For European teams eager to stay sharp during their winter football breaks, this provides an ideal alternative to domestic training camps.
Of particular importance to football clubs are Aspire Zones training pitches. Aspire Zone Foundations commitment to maintaining the highest international standards make its offer truly world-class. Teams return to AZFs because the quality and convenience of the venues are at least equal to and often better than even the biggest teams home training facilities. From pitch quality to training equipment, hospitality services to medical centres, AZFs facilities rival those of the greatest sports teams around the world.
This year, Aspire Zone Foundation provided a unique experience for members of the public with an open training session that attracted thousands of football fans from Qatar and abroad to see footballing stars. Fans had the opportunity to see their heroes play from just a few metres away. French Club and Ligue 1 leaders Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has successfully concluded its winter training camp at Aspire Zone Foundation (AZF), which took place from 13 17 January. PSG travelled to AZF during the winter break to benefit from the ideal weather conditions in Qatar as they prepare for a number of crucial international matches in the coming weeks.
