Sports Spark will include a variety of indoor sports such as football, badminton, basketball, table tennis, padel, volleyball, and ninja training, among others.
For the younger crowd, the Summer Camp for children aged 6 to 14 is a highlight, blending fun with educational experiences to ensure a productive and active summer break.

We’re delighted to open our air-conditioned exhibition halls to the local community, offering a variety of sports activities. Sports Spark is not just a family and corporate entertainment event; it highlights OCEC’s commitment to fostering a healthy, active lifestyle and community well-being throughout the summer. A special thanks to Sabco Sports for partnering with us and helping turn this vision into reality.”
Mr. Ali Al Ajmi, General Manager of Sabco Sports, added: “Sports Spark is transforming the lifestyle of people in Oman. We are confident that this initiative will make people fit, healthy, and happy. The programme not only addresses physical health but also creates a platform for social interaction and community building.”
Looking ahead, there are plans to expand the range of activities and facilities, introduce new training programmes, and host larger-scale events that will attract participants from across the region. This ongoing development ensures that the initiative will continue to be a central hub for sports and community engagement in Oman.
