Yesterday, the Doha 2030 Asian Games Bid Committee welcomed members of the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) Evaluation Committee to Doha to show the capital’s Games readiness and commitment to serving as a gateway to legacy now for Asia.
The Committee will visit Doha’s world-class, tried and tested sports venues set to offer the ultimate conditions for athletes.
Doha’s existing travel network and compact Games concept that involves minimal travel times and maximum opportunity for training and recuperation further enhance the athlete experience.
During their visit, the Committee will learn all about the convenience and accessibility that Doha 2030 would offer and also experience how the Games will celebrate the Asian continent’s cultural diversity.

But, the OCA Evaluation Committee will now be able to see all this with their own eyes.
