For a chance to win, fans should tweet or post Facebook photos having fun and playing sport on National Sport Day using the hashtag #savethedream
Speaking of the competition, Massimiliano Montanari, Executive Director – Save the Dream, said:
“Save the Dream was founded to inspire hope and empower young people around the world through sport and social media has provided the younger generation with an ideal platform to engage with other young people around the world and share their experiences and the lessons they learn through sport.
“As a major national milestone for sport in Qatar, National Sport Day provides an important opportunity to inspire and educate young people about how to lead a healthy lifestyle as well as teaching them about the positive values and lessons that sport can teach.
“This is why Save the Dream is calling on young people attending the National Sport Day in Qatar to capture moments of humanity and friendship around sport and share their photos with Save the Dream so we can inspire other young people around the world to play sport.”
