KARACHI: Pakistan's women volleyball team athlete, Azra Farooq has won the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award at the Kings Cup Volleyball event held in Maldives from August 3 to August 10.
Azra represented the MK Club and she not only proved to be crucial in securing wins for her club in all four matches of the event, but the player was named the best player of the game in each of the matches.
Her consistent performance ensured that her Milton Keynes-based club wins the tournament.
Individually, Azra took home six trophies from the event, including four player of the match awards, one MVP award, and one top 6 player award.
These achievements are a source of pride not just for Azra but for Pakistan’s women’s volleyball as a whole.
Her performances demonstrate that Pakistani women athletes can excel and make their mark on the international stage.
This was the second stint with a club in Maldives for Azra. Earlier, the athlete, along with Muqaddas Bukhari, created history when they became the first Pakistani women to be signed by a volleyball club outside Pakistan. The duo was signed by the Al-Fawz club for the MZC ladies' cup.
