Honours and ground
Al Duhail have won the Qatar Stars League 8 times: 2010-11, 2011-12, 2013-14, 2014-15, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2019-20, 2022-23.
Al Duhail play at Abdullah bin Khalifa. Which ground a Qatari club actually uses can change from season to season, and several clubs are playing 2026-27 matches at the 2022 World Cup venues, so the ground in the results table above is the one the league printed on the report for that match. The grounds, one by one.
Reading the name
Qatari club names are transliterated several ways and the record books do not agree with each other. On this site the club is Al Duhail; the league's own match reports write it as Al-Duhail SC. Searching with the other spelling is often what is between you and the result you wanted.
