During the event, Shah also highlighted the accommodation

by the Olympians.
Shah emphasized the importance of sportsmanship and good
performance, referring to the recent loss of Pakistan's team against China. The
crowd at the hockey stadium laughed at his remarks, showing their support for
the upcoming KP contingent.
The event was attended by KP Olympic Association Secretary
Zulfiqar Butt, Hockey Association members Saeed Khan, Syed Zahir Shah,
Hidayatullah, and members of the selection committee. The players who came from
all over the province welcomed Shah with applause upon his arrival.
The appointment of Khalid Khan as Chief of Mission is expected to boost the morale of the KP contingent as they prepare for the National Games.
