As an ex-international football player, FIFA/AFC certified coach, certified mentor of Special Olympics Pakistan, and an international dodgeball player and coach, FIDE certified school instructor, I have gained a comprehensive understanding of the sports landscape. My master's degree in sports sciences further enhances my knowledge and expertise in the field. I am passionate about making a positive impact through sports and have a proven track record of success in leading and developing teams.
I was a seasoned Technical Director with a demonstrated history of successfully managing and enhancing the operations of Model Town Football Club & Academy from 2007 till 2024. Proficient in talent acquisition, training program development, coordination of international coaches and tours, contract negotiation and international correspondence. Additionally, I possess exceptional coaching skills.
As a player I played about 28 International matches as a football player & 8 matches as a Dodgeball player. As a professional coach I have raised SNGPL FC, a departmental football team from scratch in 2014 and made it into a top Pakistan Premier Football League team. Many of the players I selected and trained are now part of top departmental teams and some are now a regular member’s of Pakistan National team.
I am excited about the opportunity to bring my passion, expertise, and leadership to any organization. I am confident that my skills and experiences align well with the requirements of the different roles. My skills in strategic planning, talent development, and team management would contribute to the continued success of any organization. I would welcome the chance to discuss how my contributions can support any organization's goals and vision.
I am actively involved with the Pakistan Dodgeball Federation, where I take on several key responsibilities that contribute to the growth and development of the sport. I organize training sessions for coaches and referees, ensuring they have the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in their roles. In addition to training, I coordinate various events, facilitating opportunities for players and teams to showcase their talents. My role also involves handling correspondence on both local and international levels, fostering relationships that promote dodgeball in Pakistan. I conduct demo sessions and introductory lectures at schools, colleges, and universities, aiming to raise awareness and interest in the sport among young athletes. Furthermore, I plan and organize participation in international events, representing our federation on a global stage, and providing our athletes with valuable competitive experiences. My passion for dodgeball drives me to enhance the sport's presence and development in Pakistan.
