FORMER SQUASH World Champion, Jansher Khan has expressed happiness over the the appointment of Razi Nawab as the new Vice President of Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) and hopes that under his supervision Pakistan will again gain the lost glory of Squash in the world.
In 38th Annual General Meeting of Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) Air vice Marshal Syed Razi Nawab was unanimously elected as the Vice President replacing Air Marshal Asim Suleiman, who on his promotion has vacated the post because of his service commitments.
Talking exclusively former World Champion Jansher Khan said that he knew Syed Razi Nawab personally. He is a lover of sports and an honest man, who wants to lift the sport in country.
“After taking charge as Vice President of Squash Federation he came to Peshawar, met me and discussed the matters regarding squash. On this occasion former squash player Mohibullah Khan was also present. I advised him to take revolutionary steps for the promotion of Squash,” he said.
Jansher Khan stated that new blood should be inducted in squash if lost glory has to be recaptured in Squash. Players from grass-root level must be kept under training for at least 2 to 4 years and full attention must be given to these players so that they perform well in the National and International level.
“Chief Coach must be appointed for national players. This can bring the change in the Squash as Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) had appointed Faheem Gull as a National Coach but he failed to produce world class players for this country,” he criticized.
“Federation must adopt strict policy on the performance of national players. Players who are giving best results and excellent performance on national and international level must be encouraged and players whose performance is bad must not be facilitated by the federation at any level,” he added.
Answering another question Khan said that he is ready to help out federation for the promotion of squash and training of national players. “My mission is to get back the lost glory of squash in Pakistan, if Federation requires my services for this purpose I will work free of cost,” he said.
