In its early years, football in Pakistan was mainly dominated by departmental and armed forces teams, which hired footballers as employees and provided them with a basic wage to play for their sides and work full time in the off-season.[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Majority of the departmental clubs were disbanded following the shutdown of departmental sports in Pakistan in September 2021.[8] [9] [10] [11] Departmental sports in Pakistan were restored in August 2022.[12] [13] [14] Since 2023, departmental clubs became restricted to the PFF National Challenge Cup.[15] [16] For a complete list of departmental clubs, see and PFF National Challenge Cup.
