The event will be staged with strict health protocols in place for the safety of everyone involved.
Organised by Dubai Sports Council, the NAS Sports Tournament is the biggest event of its kind in terms of participation and prize money, and has been held every year in the holy month of Ramadan since 2013 at Nad Al Sheba Sports Complex.
The event was not held last year due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Registration for NAS Padel Championship will start from March 21 through the tournament’s official website, www.nasst.ae, and the official website of Dubai Sports Council -- www.dubaisc.ae -- while registration for the cycling and running championship will open from March 23.
