The talented team has proudly represented Pakistan in multiple international Under-16 and Under-19 tournaments across the globe, including in Norway, Qatar, Russia, China, and Brazil.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Faisal described the young players as true heroes who have achieved remarkable success on the world stage despite coming from underprivileged and rural backgrounds. He encouraged them to maintain a balance between sports and education for a brighter future.
The High Commissioner further assured that the Pakistan High Commission UK will extend its full support in facilitating training opportunities for the players with professional football clubs in Britain.
This initiative is supported by Muslim Hands under the “Maidaan Project – Sports for Development”, which provides these children with a safe and nurturing environment. The project emphasises their fundamental rights to education, identity, and play, while also ensuring protection and prevention mechanisms.
