Shame on the Pakistan Hockey Federation for not sending a team to the Commonwealth Games. Keep your dirty politics to yourself next time! The decision of the Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) to ignore the IOC (International Olympic Committee) backed faction of the POA (Pakistan Olympic Association) is one, which will certainly damage Pakistan hockey. Speaking on the issue, POA President, Arif Hasan said: “Every Pakistani has emotional association with hockey, but the apathy from the hockey officials has led to this exclusion.” Michael Hooper, Chief Executive of the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) added: “Unfortunately common sense hasnt prevailed. It’s sad. The POA did everything they could to get the PHF to work with them but it simply did not happen.”
