The Kuwait National Guard announced its futsal team’s victory in the Super Cup final through an official post on its X account. The team overcame the Ministry of Interior squad after regular time finished in a 1-1 deadlock, with the National Guard prevailing 3-2 in the subsequent penalty shootout. The force highlighted the result as a crowning achievement in the tournament run by the General Authority for Sports. This marks another notable success for the National Guard in competitions featuring government institutions.
The General Authority for Sports organizes the Super Cup to foster athletic competition across ministries, institutions and government agencies. Such events form part of a structured calendar that includes league play and cup competitions for public sector teams. The authority’s programs have supported consistent participation from entities including the National Guard and the Ministry of Interior over multiple seasons.
This Super Cup win builds on the National Guard’s earlier triumph in the 2024-2025 Ministries, Institutions and Government Agencies Futsal League. A broadcast of the January 2025 league final showed the National Guard securing that title for the first time in its history, also via a 3-2 penalty outcome against the same opponent after a competitive match. The team demonstrated similar resilience and tactical discipline in the latest final.
The official National Guard account shared images from the celebration along with the match result. Its post used hashtags including #الحرس_الوطني, #kng and #kuwait_national_guard to amplify the announcement to its followers. The account regularly features updates on the force’s sporting activities as part of its public communications.
Kuwait maintains an active futsal environment beyond institutional tournaments. Club competitions in the Kuwait Futsal Super Cup, which began in 2010, have been dominated by sides such as Kuwait SC with four titles and Kazma SC with four titles according to compiled tournament records. The national futsal team has represented Kuwait in events including the AFC Futsal Championship, achieving fourth-place finishes in 2003 and 2014.
