BUFC’s women’s team President, Rubina Irfan on this occasion added, “It is a privilege to have KE as a sponsor and supporter, we would ensure that the team gives 200% instead 100% in order to achieve success in women’s football”.

Giving details the press statement added that KE will support BUFC’s women’s team through providing assistance in the area of coaching, training and providing football equipment.

Balochistan United Women’s Football Club was formed in 2008 and is a Karachi based club having young girls from Karachi and Balochistan. The club won the National Women’s Championship after defeating WAPDA 7-0 whereas the 11 BUFC women team members are also in the Pakistan national camp.
