Ariz Ali was born in Gujranwala on 1st August, 1996. Ariz is currently studying Bsc in Physical Education from GCU (Government College University). At the age of 19, he started playing Badminton in a street nearby his house, but later on started training in indoor court.

Ariz started receiving training from Ex-coach of Pakistan Railway team, Muhammad Akram, who was Ariz's first coach. Later on, he also trained under Coach Nadeem Butt, who also hails from Gujranwala, and is currently training under former National Champion, Umer Zeeshan.


Ariz has also won medals for his university, as in 2018, he was a part of GCU Badminton team, and won Silver medal in HEC Inter-university team event. In 2019, he won a Bronze medal in the same event. In the same year, he also won a position of Runner's Up at All Punjab Championship (Men's Singles). These achievements boosted his confidence as well as his enthusiasm. Ariz was also a part of trials of Punjab team in National Games, where he successfully made his 1st upset in Seniors against Shahmeer Iftikhar (Player of SNGPL).

According to Ariz Ali, when he got selected in Punjab's team, HEC did not allow their players to participate in National games through any other department. Due to this reason Ariz had to drop out from Punjab's team. Later on, the team when on to become the silver medalist in the National games and he could not become the part of the team. Being selected and not able to participate in a major tournament was mentally disturbing for Ariz, however he showed that he was strong enough to let the moment go and stay on his path.

A lot of people have supported Ariz in his Badminton journey, including his family and elder brother Muhammad Khurram Kareem, Muhammad Aslam, Nadeem Butt, Muhammad Akram, as well as Umer Zeeshan. Due to their presence, Ariz was able to stay motivated and continue during the lows of his game career. Ariz's current rank is 32 in Men's Doubles, and highest has been 54 in Men's Singles. He aims to become Pakistan's No.1 player and the National champion, representing his country with pride.

Its Nanocell Neo frame shape provides you with a greater sweet spot, allowing you to have a better chance of middling the shot.
