Bahrain gives a lot of importance to sports, specially football. Other than football, Cricket is played widely. Hockey, Basketball, Volleyball are also played a bit.

Local tournaments yes.

And you? What is your favourite sport? Which one(s) do you practice in Bahrain?
Swimming/ Cricket/ Cycling. I dont swim or regularly cycle depends on the weather and company. Cricket we usually play during good weather (September-March) on weekends.

football is the most popular sport in the kingdom since most of the Bahrain's engage into this activity in from of support , or activity participation due to large presence of foot ball clubs like stira, Manama , isa   amongst other clubs where they compete for the league title

Also on the local scene cricket is also a hobble in Bahrain due to large presence of expatriates from cricket loving nations of India , Pakistan , Bangladesh etc

My years of stay in the kingdom have not seen boxing , tennis ,badminton , netball
