History

edit

In 1976, the Quaid-e-Azam International Cup was established in Pakistan to commemorate the centenary of the birth of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the first leader of Pakistan, in which two Pakistan national teams would participate, the Pakistan national football team under the name of Pakistan Greens, and the national B team under the name of Pakistan Reds, captained by national team player Mujahid Tareen.[1] Although the team was only reserved for exhibition matches, in the next editions, the reserves team formally participated in the tournament under the name of Pakistan Blue in 1982, and Pakistan White in 1985, 1986 and 1987.[1][2][3] At the Afghanistan Republic Day Festival Cup in 1977, the B team managed by Qayyum Changezi also participated under the name of Shaheen FC.[4]

At the inaugural 1993 South Asian Association of Regional Co-operation Gold Cup (now named SAFF Championship) held in Pakistan, Pakistan White also played exhibition matches against the national sides participating in the tournament.[5]
