Doaa el-Ghobashy

Doaa Elghobashy (; born 8 November 1996) is an Egyptian beach volleyball player.

Career Elghobashy competed in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro alongside Nada Meawad in the beach volleyball competition. She and Meawad qualified for the Games by winning the CAVB Continental Cup held in Nigeria.

The team turned heads in their first match against Germany as the team wore long sleeves and pants and Elghobashy wore a hijab, making her the first woman to wear a hijab in Olympic beach volleyball. The team was also Egypt's first ever Olympic team to compete in a beach volleyball tournament.

Elghobashy has worn a hijab for 10 years and it has always been a part of her beach volleyball career. She was allowed to wear it in the Games after the international volleyball federation relaxed uniform regulations before the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.
