17 SPORTS<br />
In District <strong>Gwadar</strong>, people are very enthusiastic about local traditional games and international sports. The most popular<br />
game in the district is football. The best players are respected and honored in the community. It is so popular that every<br />
town and village has got at least one football club and a playing field. Open spaces, leveled grounds are used as<br />
playgrounds. Football clubs present in the district are mostly unregistered with sports board. Girls do not participate in<br />
field games; however, facilities are available for them to play Basket ball and other track games in their schools.<br />
17.1. Development Projects<br />
There was no project <strong>of</strong> sport in the PSDP 2011-12.<br />
17.2. Some Key Findings<br />
Sports have never been regarded as the development preference <strong>of</strong> any government as the major portion <strong>of</strong> Provincial<br />
Budget is always designated for other priority issues such as infrastructure, health and education. Most <strong>of</strong> the NGOs are<br />
also working in areas other than sports and hence sports development remains neglected. However, a special attention is<br />
required to promote sports so that youth is provided with sports facilities.<br />
