Tiga sukan elit tanpa jurulatih tahap 3

KETIKA Kementerian Belia dan Sukan meletakkan sasaran sekurang-kurangnya satu emas di Olimpik London 2012, persoalan timbul terhadap persiapan memburu kejayaan itu apabila terdedah sukan terbabit - badminton, memanah, berbasikal - tidak mempunyai jurulatih tahap tiga.

Sijil Kejurulatihan Tahap 3 Kebangsaan, adalah pengiktirafan tertinggi bagi seseorang jurulatih di negara ini dan mereka yang mempunyai sijil ini dianggap sudah pun memiliki cukup pendedahan dan ilmu berkaitan kejurulatihan termasuk sains sukan.

Berita Harian difahamkan, ketika ini hanya enam jurulatih tahap tiga, berkhidmat dengan Majlis Sukan Negara (MSN), namun tidak seorang pun daripada keenam-enam jurulatih ini termasuk dalam kelompok tiga sukan yang menjadi sasaran KBS itu.


Sejak Lembaga Kejurulatihan Kebangsaan (LKK) ditubuhkan pada 1987, sudah ada 279 jurulatih tahap tiga namun, kebanyakan mereka tidak terbabit sepenuh masa melatih atlit berprestasi tinggi.

Ketua Pengarah MSN, Datuk Zolkples Embong (gambar) , mengakui betapa tahap jurulatih negara perlu ditingkatkan terutama membabitkan kualiti jurulatih itu sendiri andai sasaran melahirkan atlit bertaraf dunia mahu dicapai.

“Saya tidak pasti berapa ramai yang mempunyai sijil kejurulatihan tahap tiga yang terbabit melatih tiga sukan utama ini. Namun kita akan berusaha memastikan semua jurulatih yang bernaung di bawah MSN akan memiliki sijil tahap tiga selain sijil kejurulatihan sukan khusus.

“MSN juga dalam perancangan bagi melahirkan bukan saja atlit bertaraf dunia tetapi jurulatih bertaraf dunia dan mereka mampu dieksport untuk melatih negara lain. Kalau boleh kita mahu melahirkan lebih ramai jurulatih seperti Terry Walsh yang mempunyai segala ramuan mencukupi untuk melatih pasukan negara,” katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian selepas majlis perasmian Konvensyen Instruktur Sains Sukan dan Bengkel Latihan untuk Jurulatih di ibu negara semalam. Bengkel berkenaan dirasmikan Timbalan Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Wee Jeck Seng yang mewakili Menterinya, Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

Sementara itu, Pengerusi LKK, Dr Ahmad Muner Che Muhammad, berkata matlamat lembaga itu bukan mahu melihat kepada kuantiti tetapi kualiti jurulatih itu kerana menyedari betapa walaupun tiga sukan terbabit tidak mempunyai jurulatih tahap tiga, mereka masih mampu melahirkan atlit bertaraf dunia.

Uber Cub: Malaysian squad Can Spring A Surprise - Ahmad Shabery

KUALA LUMPUR, April 29 (Bernama) -- Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek remains confident that the national Uber Cup squad can spring a surprise when Malaysia hosts the Thomas and Uber Cup finals at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil from May 9-16. He said despite not being the favourite, the women's team was able to surprise everyone by winning the gold medal at the Laos SEA Games. "I am confident they (Uber Cup team) will be able to produce a similar surprise. Not only are they capable of reaching the semi-final, they can go further," he told reporters after having lunch with national shuttlers here Thursday. National badminton Team manager Datuk Syed Abu Bakar Abdullah who echoed the minister's confidence said: "In Laos, nobody expected the women's team to win the world, so why not the Uber Cup?

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...

Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’

Saya setuju. We are working on more coaches! “ @ManOlimpik : Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’ http://t.co/7D7wmHWaNy ” — Khairy Jamaluddin (@Khairykj) June 10, 2014 The benchmark. Can our junior athletes train as hard as Malaysia's world No.1 badminton player, Lee Chong Wei? “IT IS okay lah. The training is not too bad lah. I will try lah … Wah, so hard lah today.” These are some of the common statements I hear from our juniors nowadays. It is not only in badminton. It is the easy-going, laid-back attitude and lack of competitiveness at grassroots level that we have problems producing quality players. I have travelled quite a bit. After ending my decade-long career with the national team, I went to play in the league in Europe. It’s different there. The European athletes know what they want. And they do it with real focus. Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...
