During the period 17th to 21st May 2012 the Pakistan Touch Federation hosted a tri�nations series in Lahore between Afghanistan, India and Pakistan. The venue was the Punjab Football Stadium located in the main stadium complex near the heart of Lahore. The main guest for the opening match was Mir Hazar Khan Bajrani, a Federal Minister and President of the Pakistan Sports Board. Other guests included the parliamentary Deputy Speaker, the Regional Secretary and the Director General of the Punjab Sports Board.

The 9th Asian Touch Championships were conducted in Putrajaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on weekend 9-10th June.

Our great game of Touch knows no boundaries when it comes to popularity across the globe - with (perhaps surprisingly) Pakistan, India & Afghanistan competing in a tri-series event in coming weeks.

The Federation of International Touch is pleased to announce the appoinment of their Board for the year going forward, following the 2011 annual General Meeting this week.
