Dear Supporter,
Thank you very much for your kind support and for believing in Chitral Women's Sports Club mission to empower young Chitrali girls through sports.
Our plans for coaches training program had to delay further towards the end of 2021 because of the rising COVID-19 cases. Currently we might face another lockdown because of the fast spread of delta variant. Our top most priority is the health of everyone around us.
We are hoping that with the ease of COVID-19 around September, we can organise a tournament for local games of Chitral. We want to involve both boys and girls in this to make it more inclusive. We believe it is important for boys to participate in games with girls to realize that women too can excel in sports, to respect them and take them as their equals. At the same time in collaboration with humanitarian optimism psychosocial education we plan to conduct therapy sessions for local women and girls because it is becoming increasingly important with the rise of the suicide rate in Chitral.
Our work with Al Zahra Polestar School Chitral continues as we sponsor their sports goods. We spoke to the owner of the school to make sports not just a part of their curriculum but to actually practically work to get their students involved in sports.
Thank you for standing up with Chitral Womens Sports Club in fighting for a more inclusive society.
