SEPERTI diramal, jaguh lumba basikal trek negara, Mohd. Azizulhasni Awang muncul selaku pemenang Anugerah Atlet Terbaik Persatuan Penulis-Penulis Sukan Malaysia (SAM)-100Plus 2009 yang berlangsung di Hotel Hilton, Petaling Jaya, semalam.

Azizulhasni dipilih meraih anugerah tersebut menerusi undian yang dijalankan sepenuhnya oleh ahli-ahli SAM setelah enam atlet disenarai pendekkan dengan kerjasama dari Majlis Sukan Negara (MSN).
Sepanjang penampilannya pada tahun 2009, pelumba berusia 22 tahun itu telah meraih pelbagai gelaran di pentas antarabangsa.

Antara pencapaian terbaiknya ialah meraih pingat emas acara keirin pada Kejohanan Piala Dunia IV di Beijing, China.


Azizulhasni turut meraih emas acara 200 meter pecut individu pada Kejohanan Kebangsaan Colombia.
Selaku penerima anugerah tersebut, Azizulhasni membawa pulang hadiah wang tunai RM10,000 beserta trofi.
Kejayaan itu juga menyaksikan Azizulhasni mengenepikan lima lagi calon lain iaitu ratu skuasy, Datuk Nicol David, jaguh, Datuk Lee Chong Wei, Daniel Bego (renang), penerjun negara, Leong Mun Yee-Pandelela Rinong dan juga skuad badminton wanita negara.

Azizulhasni yang tidak dapat hadir semalam kerana masih menjalani latihan serta menuntut di Universiti Deakin di Melbourne, Australia, sempat dihubungi melalui temu bual secara langsung menerusi panggilan telefon pada majlis tersebut.

“Anugerah ini nanti bakal menjadi suntikan semangat kepada diri saya untuk mencipta lebih banyak kejayaan bagi mengharumkan nama negara di pentas antarabangsa,” jelas Azizulhasni yang diwakili oleh ibunya, Selamiah Yong pada majlis semalam.

Sementara itu, skuad bola sepak bawah 23 (B-23) negara pula menerima anugerah khas iaitu Outdo Yourself yang mula diperkenalkan pada tahun ini.

Anugerah tersebut diberikan berikutan kejayaan skuad kendalian K. Rajagobal itu menamatkan kemarau selama 20 tahun apabila berjaya merangkul pingat emas pada temasya Sukan SEA di Laos Disember tahun lalu.

Tetamu kehormat, Timbalan Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin telah menyampaikan anugerah pada majlis itu.

Turut hadir ialah Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek dan Pengurus Hal Ehwal Korporat F&N Beverages Marketing Sdn. Bhd., Datuk Kamal Harun.

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 ...

Organising Major Sports Events Can Inspire Sports Culture Among The People - Khairy

PUTRAJAYA, June 5 (Bernama) -- Organising major sports events can help inspire sports culture among the people and ensure a healthy lifestyle said Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin. Khairy said the Tour of Malaysia cycling race organised since 1963, for example, can encourage more people to take the sport in a more competitive way or just for recreation purposes. "A study carried out by a world renown medical journal, The Lancet, revealed that 61 percent of adults in Malaysia do not engage themselves in active sports. "A study by the Health Ministry revealed that only 25 percent of Malaysians exercise," he said in his speech when launching the 2013 Tour of Malaysia (Jelajah Malaysia) at the Youth and Sports Ministry, here, Wednesday. "Cycling, though not as popular here as in countries like Denmark, the activity is becoming popular among the people as can be seen through an increase in sale of bicycles for recreation," he sa...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...
