ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tennis Federation (PTF) contemplated the possibilities of initiating the first-ever professional league involving some foreign players once the COVID-19 dust settles down.
The Annual General Meeting (AGM), which was held under the chairmanship of PTF President Salim Saifullah Khan under open skies at the PTF Complex on Saturday, discussed the option and possibilities of initiating the first-ever league.
The idea was floated by seasoned sports administrator Mohammad Taufeeq (Director Sports POF Wah). “To make tennis really professional and income-generating for the youth, there is a requirement to initiate tennis league where foreigners could also play and enhance the element of competition for talented youth. I would propose that tennis league should be initiated once the dust of virus settles down,” Taufeeq said.
