Hup Wei sasar pecah rekod kebangsaan di Iran


HUP Wei mahu pecahkan rekod kebangsaan dan peribadi setinggi 2.27 meter yang dilakukannya pada Kejohanan Olahraga Terbuka China dua tahun lalu.
JAGUH lompat tinggi negara Lee Hup Wei mahu menjadikan Kejohanan Dalam Dewan Asia di Iran, minggu depan sebagai medan memecahkan rekod kebangsaan dan peribadinya setinggi 2.27 meter yang dilakukannya pada Kejohanan Olahraga Terbuka China dua tahun lalu.

Dia akan berlepas Isnin ini bagi menyesuaikan diri dengan keadaan di sana menjelang kejohanan itu dari 24 sehingga 26 Februari ini.

Sejak mencipta rekod itu pada 2008, catatan terbaiknya selepas itu ialah 2.18m ketika meraih pingat emas Sukan Sea di Laos, Disember tahun lalu.

Mengenai Sukan Komanwel di New Delhi dan Sukan Asia di Guangzhou, kedua-dua pada penghujung tahun ini, Hup Wei berkata dia masih menunggu keputusan Kesatuan Olahraga Amatur Malaysia (KOAM) untuk mengatur kejohanan yang perlu disertainya sebelum layak ke kedua-dua temasya sukan itu.

Had kelayakan ke Sukan Asia ialah sekurang-kurangnya menduduki tempat ketiga di Doha 2006 dan bagi Sukan Komanwel, tempat keenam pada Sukan Komanwel Melbourne 2006.

Pada Sukan Asia Doha pada 2006, Hup Wei menduduki tangga kelapan dengan catatan 2.15m. Dia tidak menyertai Sukan Komanwel 2006 di Melbourne kerana kecederaan lutut. Hup Wei kini menjalani latihan bawah pengawasan jurulatih peribadinya, Alfaro, dari Cuba. - Bernama

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

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...
