History

In Pakistan, the sport of handball was introduced by Muhammad Shafiq in 1984 at University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, which has been a hub of handball in Pakistan since then. During the 20th National Games of Pakistan, which was staged in Faisalabad, an exhibition match between National Athletics & Fitness Club and University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, was played at Iqbal Stadium, Faisalabad. Since then, handball has been gradually developing and gaining popularity. PHF was formed in April 1985 with Ahsan Alam as president and Muhammad Shafiq as secretary general.[2]
