    The mosque that once stood within the premises of Arbab Niaz Cricket Stadium in Peshawar is still absent, despite its demolition. Instead, a hostel for players has been constructed. Back in 2013, former cricketers had contributed to the construction of a mosque to facilitate both the stadium employees and visiting players. However, as part of the ongoing reconstruction of Arbab Niaz Cricket Stadium, the mosque was dismantled.   While most of the stadium's reconstruction work has been completed, the mosque's rebuilding remains pending. The cricket community is now urging the Secretary of Sports to address this matter promptly. They emphasize the importance of reconstructing the mosque within Arbab Niaz Cricket Stadium, making it not only a place for sports but also a place for players to offer prayers within the stadium's boundaries. #ArbabNiazCricketStadium #MissingMosque #CricketPlayers

    The District Sports Office in Peshawar has recently raised the monthly fee for players at Shah Tahmas Football Stadium to five hundred rupees. Furthermore, a declaration has been issued, indicating changes in management for players starting from November 1, 2023.   Shahi Bagh's Shah Tahmas Football Stadium has been a popular destination for young football enthusiasts, with many children flocking to the field to engage in the sport. Despite over four months passing, there has been a lack of action when it comes to providing football coaching to these eager children, who come in search of learning the fundamental techniques of the game.   Approximately one hundred children currently visit Shah Tahmas football stadium on a daily basis, but they are left without proper guidance in developing their football skills. Meanwhile, the District Sports Officer has also increased the fees to five hundred rupees for those who frequent the ground, despite the fact that these young p

  In a recent interview, Kabaddi player and International Referee, Syed Sultan Bacha, also known as Sultan Bari, and the Secretary of the Kabaddi Association in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, discussed the challenges faced by traditional Kabaddi and its decline in popularity. Sultan Bari highlighted that the game of cricket and excessive mobile phone usage have contributed to the decline in interest among the youth for power Kabaddi, a traditional sport of the Pakhtun nation.   According to Sultan Bari, Kabaddi's popularity in Punjab is far superior to that in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, as it is widely played and supported in Punjab. Fans actively engage with the sport, providing valuable support to the players.   Sultan Bari acknowledged that several years ago, Kabaddi was on the brink of fading away in the region. However, recent efforts have been made to promote the sport. Despite limited resources and various challenges, Kabaddi, including Asian and Circle styles, is gaining recognition.

    Drivers employed by various district administration officers have expressed their concerns regarding a recent announcement made by the Chief Secretary and Deputy Commissioner KP. The announcement requires them to maintain logbooks for the vehicles used by Assistant Commissioners and other officials when they visit homes and offices. This directive has raised worries among the drivers as it seems impractical.   The crux of the issue lies in the fact that these officials receive a monthly allocation of 400 liters of petrol for their vehicles, with many of them being PMS officers who possess three vehicles at their residences. This allocation amounts to a substantial 12 to 13 hundred liters of petrol, including the fuel used by the drivers working with the district administration.   Drivers associated with various institutions have a different perspective. They believe that each vehicle is allocated 400 liters of petrol, out of which only around 100 liters are utilized. At t

    The Provincial Sports Directorate is gearing up to host the Inter-Regional Volleyball Championship at the Pakistan Sports Board and Coaching Center in Peshawar after November 10. Seven different regions, including the Peshawar Volleyball Academy, will be participating in this thrilling event.   Notably, players from Wali Volleyball Academy are also set to join the competition, and the final arrangements are currently underway. To ensure the selection of top-notch talent, a comprehensive selection process is ongoing across various regions. District Sports Officers have been tasked with identifying and recruiting promising under-20 volleyball players from their respective areas for participation in the regional competitions.   According to sources within the sports directorate, a rigorous selection process will determine the best team among these eight, with the selected team members receiving a monthly stipend for approximately one year. This promising team will proudly re

    Players training at the Tariq Wadud Badminton Hall have condemned the actions of DSO Peshawar, who came to the hall and expelled them. They argue that the badminton hall is meant for players and that they should have the opportunity to play, regardless of their age or experience. DSO Peshawar is abusing his position by expelling players from the hall, and this is harming the future of badminton.   The players, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the Sports Directorate is supporting DSO Peshawar, even though his actions are wrong. They argue that no DSO should be allowed to come and play among players during official working hours. The Sports Directorate should be providing opportunities to young players, not blocking their paths.   The players also criticized DSO Charsadda's decision to change the working hours of the badminton hall. They said that it is wrong for DSO Charsadda to come to Peshawar and change the working hours of players who are trying to fo

  In a concerning revelation, it has come to light that the Youth Department of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) has been sending Peshawar University students in the name of FATA for the past two years. This misuse of FATA youth funds has been occurring with the department's approval.   Reports indicate that a collaboration between the Youth Department and a special organization is facilitating this process. Shockingly, two department officers have been directly involved in this misuse of FATA funds. These funds, earmarked for the betterment of the FATA region, have been used inappropriately.   Sources familiar with the matter have disclosed that, under the pretext of supporting FATA, Peshawar University students are intermittently sent on trips to Lahore and Islamabad. This operation is conducted with the cooperation of officers responsible for the Youth Department's operations, accounts, and budget.   It is worth noting that these funds rightfully belong to FATA, where th

    On November 2, 2023, a dispute arose at the Tariq Wadud Badminton Hall of the Sports Directorate Peshawar when DSO Peshawar threw out all the players who were playing badminton there. DSO Peshawar then used a harsh tone with the players, which angered them and led to a tense situation.   The players who were expelled protested, stating that they are junior players who pay regular fees and that DSO Peshawar is a government employee who has no right to expel them. Even the administrator of the Peshawar Sports Complex was unaware of the incident, but officials immediately reached the spot and informed him.   In view of the situation, the administrator told DSO Peshawar that he should have taken him into confidence before coming, but this process was stopped. Once again, the situation became tense, which DSO Charsadda tried to resolve by reaching the spot. However, he also did not inform the administrator of the Peshawar Sports Complex and gave DSO Peshawar time from one o
