2-Year Ban On Pakistan Hockey Captain Ammad Butt Lifted By New PHF Interim President

Mohyuddin Ahmad Wani, the newly appointed interim president of the Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF), has made a significant decision by lifting the two-year suspension imposed on national team captain Ammad Shakeel Butt. The ban, which had been in place due to disciplinary issues, had raised concerns among fans and players regarding the team's performance and morale. By reinstating Butt, Wani aims to not only restore stability within the team but also enhance their competitive edge as they prepare for upcoming international tournaments. This move is seen as a pivotal step in rejuvenating Pakistan hockey and building a cohesive unit that can reclaim its former glory in the sport. The decision has been welcomed by the hockey community, with hopes that Butt's leadership will inspire the team to perform at its best in the challenging landscape of international hockey.
