In the past, Pakistan’s hockey team was competitive and won major tournaments, but today they are struggling due to inadequate compensation for players and a lack of investment in the team’s infrastructure and emotional and mental support. Like many other countries, Pakistan has faced challenges in terms of funding for hockey and other sports. This can make it difficult to attract and retain top talent, as well as to provide the necessary resources and support for athletes to succeed at the highest level.
Talent Shortage of Hockey Players in Pakistan?
Has Gojra turned barren? Pakistan’s hockey team has historically had a strong pool of talented players and was even able to compete and win the World Cup on astroturf after it was introduced. However, the current generation of players is not being developed in the same way, as there is less focus on sports in schools, colleges, and universities. Additionally, the increasing use of social media and devices is taking up a significant amount of time for young people and maybe impact their involvement in sports. These factors have contributed to a decline in the production of talented hockey players in Pakistan.
