Hajj Union Opens Saudis’ Cup with 500K Riyals
The Saudi Camel Racing Federation has announced for the first time the establishment of the Crown Prince Festival for Camels dedicated to Saudi participants, with a cash prize of 500,000 Riyals awarded to the winner who scores the highest points according to an approved system starting from the 2026-2027 season. The competition will commence at the eighth Crown Prince Festival, held at the Taif Racecourse on September 3rd. The point system awards 25 points for first place in the open and Saudi production categories, and 10 points for first place in other races. Regulatory guidelines have been put in place to ensure fairness, including procedures for tallying points after each festival, transferring points upon the sale of a camel, and disqualifying participants who use prohibited materials or performance-enhancing methods. Results in case of a tie will be determined based on the best recorded time. This update aims to enhance competitiveness and support national production, contributing to the preservation of camel heritage in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.
