Under the vibrant skies of Riyadh and Jeddah, the 2025 MBC Sports Tournament came to life with energy, unity and spirited competition. Organized by “Mr. Muntaser Allah – Chairman of the MBC Saudi Arabia & “Mr. Mahmoud Omar – Vice Chairman of the MBC Saudi Arabia” This year’s tournament reaffirmed Marriott’s unwavering commitment to promoting associate wellness, teamwork, and cross-property collaboration through its global TakeCare program.

Over the course of the tournament, the event transformed Riyadh into a hub of athleticism and connection, with each property proudly fielding teams that showcased not only talent and skill, but also exceptional camaraderie and sportsmanship. Whether it was the excitement of a football final, the strategic rallies in paddle, or the intensity of a volleyball match, the energy on the field was matched by the spirit off it—where associates cheered, connected, and celebrated one another.

Our associates are the heart of everything we do, said Mahmoud Omar, General Manager of Courtyard by Marriott Riyadh Northern Ring Road, and Vice Chairman of the MBC Saudi Arabia. “This tournament is more than just competition—it’s a reflection of the vibrant culture Marriott fosters.

The success of the tournament was amplified by the generous support of the official sponsors. ZTE Saudi, Honor, Tecno Mobile Global, and Xiaomi Technology each played a vital role in powering this event and elevating the experience for all involved.

“This tournament is more than just a series of games,” said Mahmoud Omar. “It’s a celebration of people—the passion, diversity, and spirit that make Marriott more than a workplace. Seeing our associates come together in Riyadh to compete, cheer, and connect was a powerful reminder of the culture we work so hard to build every day.”

From unforgettable match moments to heartfelt team huddles and inspiring victories, the 2025 MBC Sports Tournament has left an enduring mark on everyone involved. It serves as a reminder that when we come together—not just as colleagues, but as teammates—we unlock the best of what hospitality truly means.
