In the organization, held in the Shahaniyeh district, 25 kilometers from the capital Doha, more than 700 camels brought from Arab countries in different categories compete for the first place.

To maintain the excitement of the championship, the flags of the countries participating in the World Cup are displayed in many parts of the site. The top part of the award given to camel owners is in the shape of a soccer ball.

The organization’s mascot is a camel named Hoover, dressed in local Qatari clothing and holding a soccer ball. Huver means “little camel” in Arabic.
