Young Footballers Dwindle in Shah Tahamas, Coaches' Absence Blamed
Peshawar's Shah Tahamas Football Stadium, once bustling with
vibrant young footballers, now faces a disheartening decline. The number of
junior players has sharply decreased, leaving the field eerily quiet. The
culprit? A glaring lack of coaches.
Previously, the stadium buzzed with activity as over five
junior teams honed their skills each day, guided by dedicated coaches employed
on a daily wage basis. These hardworking individuals received a modest salary
of 25000 rupees, ensuring regular practice and fostering the players' talent.
However, with the arrival of DG Khalid Mahmood, a dark cloud
settled over the stadium. All daily wage coaches were abruptly dismissed.
Though they initially held onto hope, clinging to the possibility of
reinstatement, their optimism slowly faded. By June 2023, the coaches were
completely let go, their absence leaving a gaping void.
The consequences are now painfully evident. With no guiding
hand, the remaining players, barely a dozen or two, feel adrift and dispirited.
Their practice sessions lack proper instruction and supervision, leaving their
development stunted. The once promising environment has morphed into a shadow
of its former self.
Parents and concerned citizens plead with the authorities to urgently address this crisis. The future of Shah Tahamas football and the dreams of these young athletes hang in the balance. Immediate action is necessary to reinstate the coaches, reignite the passion for the game, and reclaim the vibrant legacy of this beloved stadium.
