National Hockey Team Visits Aitchison College Lahore before going Jakarta for AHC 2022. Here's what happened when we got there:
The team had a few games to play in the winter and this one was especially fun. They were all players who used that experience from their club career, now they are being asked whether they would like some more time with them? Even as I told everyone it could be years yet of hockey trips...I really can't think of many scenarios how such a beautiful game should end without having at least three or four days each season off already! As expected Kaleem Khan played his first ever AHL game against us but still only took about two weeks away after signing up here.
1. AHC 2022 has been selected as the host nation of the 2023 Asian Games. This year's edition is being held in Indonesia and this was also the first time that Pakistan hosted the event.
