Lack of football facilities

Published

I AM a football player from Turbat. Football is a neglected sport in the city. I recently toured Karachi where we got so much respect which was beyond my expectation.

Turbat residents are fond of the game but they play for pleasure while football is played also for money all over the world.

Despite having talent and enthusiasm, we don’t have facilities in Turbat. I request the authorities concerned to provide football grounds for the youths in Turbat so that they could be involved in a healthy activity.
