LAHORE, May 25: The project to install the floodlights at the National Hockey Stadium (NHS) will be completed before the start of the Dec 1 to 9 Champions Trophy hockey tournament to be held at the same venue.

The Punjab sports department assured the president of Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) Zafarullah Jamali at a meeting here on Friday.

"The installation of floodlights at the stadium will finally begin at the end of June this year and in all certainty will be completed before the start of the forthcoming Champions Trophy," a PHF spokesman said after the meeting.

However, in the present circumstances Super Hockey League (SHL) might not be organised. SHL, which was first hosted by Karachi in 2005, was to be organised in Lahore later. But it could not be held since the venue doesn’t have lights.
