The National Bank of Bahrain (NBB) returned as the exclusive sponsor of the IRONKIDS 2025 annual youth running competition, held alongside the IRONMAN 70.3 Middle East Championship Bahrain. Held on December 4th near Reef Island, the event welcomed young athletes from across the Kingdom for a day of sport, empowerment, and community engagement.
With participants aged 3 to 17 competing in age-specific races ranging from a 100-metre dash to 1.5 kilometres, IRONKIDS highlighted the spirit of perseverance and the importance of early physical activity. Each child was awarded a finisher’s medal, honouring their individual effort and dedication.
As part of its ongoing commitment to inclusion, NBB invited children from the Bahrain Down Syndrome Society, Alia Rehabilitation Centre for Autism, and Smile Society to take part in a dedicated IRONKIDS race. The initiative offered a joyful and supportive experience for all, reflecting NBB’s values of diversity and inclusivity.
The Bank also brought back the NBB IRONKIDS Village, a dynamic family-friendly zone featuring engaging games, entertainment, and activities around financial education. The space was themed around the Yalla Family Account, NBB’s youth-centric banking product, with children enjoying interactive challenges, giveaways, and a chance to open their own Yalla accounts on-site with exclusive IRONKIDS rewards.
NBB’s sponsorship of IRONKIDS 2025 reflects its wider ESG mandate to support youth development, promote health and wellbeing, and strengthen community ties. The Bank remains committed to empowering younger generations to lead active, confident, and financially aware lives.
