Jassim Ibrahim al-Mansouri has been appointed to lead the Arab Weightlifting Federation’s Development Committee, marking a significant expansion of Qatari influence in the sport’s regional governance. The selection of al-Mansouri, who serves as the Secretary-General of the Qatar Weightlifting Federation (QWF), was finalized during high-level meetings in Doha this month. He will now concurrently chair the Development Committees for both the Arab and West Asian Weightlifting Federations for the 2025–2029 electoral term. Al-Mansouri is not the only Qatari official moving into a high-ranking regional role. Khalid Abdul Aziz Nabina, Assistant Secretary of the QWF, has been named Chairman of the Athletes’ Committee for the Arab Weightlifting Federation. The appointments are part of a broader “administrative sweep” during the December 2025 election cycle in Doha, which also saw Mohammed bin Yousef al-Mana re-elected unopposed as President of the Arab Weightlifting Federation. Direct line to global decision-makingThis regional reshuffle significantly strengthens the link between Middle Eastern weightlifting and the global stage. Both al-Mansouri and Nabina already hold active seats on International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) panels: Al-Mansouri: Member of the IWF Innovation and Development Committee.Nabina: Member of the IWF Governance Committee. By securing the chairmanships of the Development and Athletes’ committees, Qatar now holds direct oversight of the two most critical pillars of the sport’s regional growth: Technical Modernization: Al-Mansouri will lead efforts to upgrade training standards and infrastructure across 19 member nations. Athlete Welfare: Nabina will spearhead initiatives regarding athlete rights and representation, a key area of focus for the IWF as it looks toward the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics. Officials state these selections reflect a growing regional confidence in Qatar’s “administrative and technical expertise,” moving the nation beyond its reputation as a world-class host and into a role as a primary architect of the sport’s future.
