Pakistan has immense sporting talent which is why it has excelled in individual sports as well but ironically our bests sometimes fail to make it to the global circuit. However they fall victim to the negligence of the government due to which they disappear from the scene very soon.
Javelin Thrower Arshad Nadeem is one of these tough athletes who made history by winning the silver medal in the World Olympic Championship in which he beat European nations with big budgets now Preparing for upcoming Paris Olympics. In this regard, national athlete Arshad Nadeem says that his outdoor training in South Africa was excellent and now his goal is to perform well in the Paris Olympics. It should be remembered that Javelin Thrower Arshad Nadeem underwent 5 weeks of outdoor training in South Africa completed, during which he worked on the strong throw.
Arshad Nadeem said that the outdoor sessions were great and the throw has improved. Coach Tursius Leibenberg has improved the technique a lot and now I feel much better than before in terms of fitness.
I am in full rhythm and now the difference will be seen in international competitions, he added. My goal is to do well in the Paris Olympics. Arshad Nadeem will return home next week after two indoor sessions. However, it is a fact that he is not being provided with the same facilities in the country as his rival Neraj Chopra in the World Championship. Neraj Chopra’s game watchers know that he got the upper hand over Arshad Nadeem on the basis of his better training as his javelin throwing technique was better than Arshad’s and therefore he won despite being underweight.
The main reason for this is the condition of facilities provided to our national javelin throwers, two months back he makes a statement that he do not have access to standards Javelin. As Neraj chopra said that should not be a big problem for Arshad Nadeem as an athlete. Neraj Chopra said that the Pakistani government can see Arshad Nadeem’s needs and support him, my government is also supporting me. It was said that Arshad Nadeem is the top javelin thrower, I am sure javelin manufacturers will be happy to sponsor Arshad Nadeem.
Arshad Nadeem should be given what he wants, that is my request. It should be noted that Pakistani javelin Thrower Arshad Nadeem revealed that he was an international level javelin plyer who is preparing of the Paris Olympics. On the above statement there was a lot of laughter on Pakistan in the international circuit, so it is necessary to further polish this national diamond.
More efforts are needed so that in the upcoming Olympic Games he can show the best performance. The way Arshad is preparing will definitely pay off, but for this it is necessary that the Pakistani officials and administration should fully support him. If the readers remember, the difference between the two players was clear during the World Championship in 2023. The throws thrown by Arshad Nadeem seemed to have a lot of power, while Neraj Chopra had power as well as equipped with technique due to which one of his throws surpassed all javelin throwers and he won the Gold Medal.
Now these Pakistani officials know very well how to work on Arshad Nadeem’s run-up and throw coordination. If Arshad Nadeem’s body language is worked on, he can become a low-pack player, it remains to be seen. Let’s see how our administration treats this national diamond. If they are provided with all the facilities, there is no reason why they cannot show their best performance in the Olympics this time. Therefore, there is a need for the government of Pakistan to secure the future of this emerging champion player so that he can become a shining example for young javelin throwers in the coming future.
