With a view to raising awareness about the importance of sports and highlighting the talent of young players on the grassroots level, MILO Futsal League event for 2019 was held here at the Beaconhouse Newlands campus.
The event brought together a diverse mix of teams from three major cities; Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad to compete in a dynamic environment. Matches were held and the winning teams as well as players were awarded prizes for their efforts. Coach Juan and Coach Enric of FC Barcelona had travelled from Spain to be a part of this event.
"There is an urgent need to elevate the level of sports in Pakistan. For too long, we have ignored the brilliant talent these young individuals have and there are not enough opportunities available to bring them into the limelight. MILO identified this need and partnered with FC Barcelona to not only, create a sports friendly event for the youth but to also give them a chance to display their potential. We believe in creating the right kind of opportunities for our girls and boys to excel in the world of sports.", said Ahsan Kakazai - Brand Manager Nestlé MILO Pakistan.
