Hockey needs help. There is no investment of time or money and game is suffering. Hopefully with war on terror slowing down and peace returning, people will get change to play sports again. And please, try to encourage kids to play sports and not become phone-addict or book-worms :)

We need a Pakistan Super League for hockey to have a turn around of fortunes like n cricket. Last year there was some news about such a hockey league.
Authorities, please listen if you like to have a turn around in hockey. Act now.
I wish all the best to our boys.

No one will show mercy and care of this ailing national sport of Pakistan and icing on the cake is even media and channels do not give it proper coverage. Thanks Dawn for publishing th news of big quartefinal which is hardly contained on nine lines...ridiculous
