LAHORE: Pakistan’s tent-pegging team departed for Jordan on Monday to participate in the World Tent-Pegging Championship, scheduled to be held from Nov 11 to 14.

The team left after completing a training camp in Mianwali under the supervision of coach Haroon Bandial, according to a press release issued by the Pakistan Tent-Pegging Association.

The five-member squad is led by Wajahatullah Khan Awan and includes Mahar Tassawar Abbas Lak, Nasir Abbas Gowance, Nigah Hussain and Mohammad Sagheer Zargar.

Pakistan finished runners-up in the 2023 World Cup. The achievement provided a boost to the promotion and development of tent-pegging in the country.
