This time, the event saw an amazing increase of 89 percent over the 19 junior girls, who had participated in the 1st PGA Junior Girls Match held in March earlier this year, as over all, 36 junior girls, aged between 6 to 14 years competed in this event, including 27 from Lahore, 7 from Islamabad and 2 from KPK.
This event was held under the overall supervision of Dr Asma Afzal Shami, Chairperson Ladies Golf in Pakistan.
“While envisaging this initiative at the grassroots level that it would serve as the nursery from which we could harvest the future lady golf champions of Pakistan. In order to maximize the benefit from this, a special ‘Talent Hunt Committee’ was formed under Mrs. Iffat Zahra, comprising girl golfers who have already distinguished themselves at the National level, to monitor today’s match and identify junior girls displaying special talent. These included Humna, Sania and Iman, who also served as the ‘role models’ for today’s participants.”
