Pakistan Hockey Federation Reveals Daily Payment for Players at $110
KARACHI: The President of the Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF), Mohyuddin Wani, announced that hockey players are currently receiving a daily payment of $110. This revelation was made during a speech at the Pakistan Hockey League event, where Wani emphasized the importance of strengthening the financial management of the federation.
Wani stated that upon taking office, he recognized the need to improve the financial conditions for athletes, ensuring they are adequately compensated for their efforts. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to enhance the sport’s profile and support its players, who have historically faced financial challenges.
The decision to increase player compensation is expected to have significant implications for the sport in Pakistan, potentially attracting more talent and fostering a competitive environment. It reflects a commitment to investing in the future of hockey in the country, which has seen a decline in international performance in recent years.
Looking ahead, the PHF plans to implement further measures aimed at promoting hockey and increasing funding for the sport. Upcoming meetings are expected to focus on additional financial strategies and partnerships that could further benefit players and the overall development of hockey in Pakistan.
