Sports Nasirabad
Introduction
Two games, cricket and football are common among youngsters. There are three regular grounds in D. M. Jamali: Ghaffar Shaeed Cricket ground, Railway ground and Dinar Stadium. The one in the college is utilized for sports too. The grounds are not properly managed and do not have grass. Particularly when football is played, the grounds are dusty.
The office of the Sports Officer exists at D. M. Jamali in the Commissioner's Office. He accounts for the whole division, but is without funds. An officer club exists in D. M. Jamali. It has tennis, squash and badminton facilities. There is a well furnished club in the WAPDA colony catering to the needs of foreigners employed in projects in the area. Both clubs have indoor games arrangements. Rights of admission is reserved and restricted.
The traditional games like wrestling and horse-racing are observed in the rural areas. Playing of snooker is common in a few shops in D. M. Jamali. People play cards as vocation and for a bet.
