Pakistan netball team have made history by reaching the final of the Asian Youth Girls Netball Championship 2025 after a strong 64-39 win over Japan in the semifinal.

 

The match was played at the Jeonju Hwasan Gymnasium in South Korea. Pakistan started fast, leading by 21-7 by the end of the first quarter. Japan tried to fight back but Pakistan stayed in control and kept increasing their lead.

 

Players like Leya Raza Shah, Alisha Naveed, Sumayya Kouser, Haleema, Jasmine Farooq, Amani, Parisa, and Farah Rasheed played key roles with good shooting, passing, and defence.

 

Earlier in the tournament, Pakistan had big wins over Saudi Arabia, Chinese Taipei, South Korea, and Japan in the group stage.

 

The team will now face either Maldives or Chinese Taipei in the final on Friday. With this win, Pakistan’s girls are just one step away from lifting the trophy and inspiring young players at home.
