Hockey...the national sport of Pakistan but with lesser spirit than Cricket is played every where in Pakistan. It depends on the mood of the people as well by that i mean if there is a hockey tournment on television then you will see all the kids with a hokey in their hands walking towards a ground & vise versa for Cricket. Lahore has the World's biggest hockey stadium as well.
Equipment: The best place to buy all Sports gear including hockey is the city of Sports"Sialkot" which is about 70 km from Lahore well worth a visit if you are a sporty person.......
