Background
[edit]Abbat was born in Haripur, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa[4] and holds a bachelor's degree in Physical education.[5][6]
Career
[edit]It was unusual in her hometown to participate in sports. However, Sabia was passionate about sports from an early age. In 2011, Sadia witnessed a women's cycling competition in Pania where the women were unable to ride a bike properly.[7][8] This inspired Sabia to learn to ride a bicycle.[9] Sadia took her uncle's bicycle to practice on. She was unable to ride it in the start and fell many times before she could finally ride it.[10] Sabia travelled to Lahore for training because of lack of facilities.[11][12] Sabia became the first woman from Hazara division to win the National Cycling Championship in 2013.[13][14][15][16][17] She has also represented Pakistan in the Asian games.[18]
