Shabery Cheek cipta sejarah


GELANGGANG di Kompleks Futsal Putrajaya hampir siap sepenuhnya menjelang Rentap Futsal Putrajaya Kosmo!. pada 14 hingga 16 Mei depan.


MENTERI Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek mencipta sejarah tersendiri apabila menjadi pemain pertama yang berjaya menjaringkan gol di gelanggang Kompleks Futsal Presint 18, Putrajaya.
Semalam, Shabery bersama timbalannya, Datuk Razali Ibrahim serta para pegawai kanan Kementerian Belia dan Sukan (KBS) mempamerkan kehebatan masing-masing dalam satu perlawanan persahabatan futsal bagi menguji gelanggang futsal yang baru siap dibina itu.

Biarpun sibuk dengan tugasnya selaku menteri kabinet, Shabery turun meluangkan masa untuk mempamerkan bakatnya dalam permainan futsal.

Beliau memiliki kehebatan tersendiri apabila berjaya membuka tirai jaringan pada perlawanan tersebut sekali gus muncul individu pertama mencipta nama sebagai penjaring di Kompleks Futsal Putrajaya yang serba canggih itu.

Selepas hampir dua jam beraksi, Shabery ternyata berpuas hati dengan pembinaan 11 gelanggang futsal bernilai RM3.45 juta itu dan menganggap ia merupakan yang terbaik pernah dibina oleh KBS berbanding gelanggang futsal lain di seluruh negara. Pembinaannya diselia oleh Perbadanan Putrajaya.

"Setelah saya sendiri bermain di gelanggang ini (Kompleks Futsal Putrajaya), saya sememangnya berpuas hati terutama dengan kerja-kerja pembinaan yang saya anggap sangat teliti.

"Bagi saya, gelanggang ini memenuhi segala piawaian yang telah ditetapkan dan ia selamat digunakan untuk Rentap Futsal Putrajaya sempena sambutan Hari Belia pada 14 hingga 16 Mei ini.

"Justeru, saya menyeru kepada semua belia di Malaysia agar turut serta dalam program yang dianjurkan sempena Hari Belia Negara itu kerana inilah masanya untuk mereka berkumpul," jelas Shabery.

Beliau menambah, ketika ini gelanggang futsal utama di kompleks tersebut diberi nama Gelanggang Mokhtar Dahari bagi memperingati sumbangan legenda bola sepak negara itu dalam sukan bola sepak tanah air.
"Gelanggang utama telah diberi nama dan baki 10 lagi gelanggang tersebut turut akan diberi nama dan hanya akan diumumkan setelah kompleks ini siap sepenuhnya pada November depan.

"KBS ketika ini mempunyai banyak pilihan bagi nama tersebut namun ia hanya akan diputuskan sebelum November depan," tambahnya.
Sementara itu, Pengarah Kecergasan Bahagian Pembangunan Sukan KBS, Mohd. Salleh Ghazali berkata, kesemua gelanggang futsal yang dibina di kompleks tersebut mengikut spesifikasi yang ditetapkan oleh Persekutuan Bola Sepak Dunia (FIFA).

"Permukaan gelanggang tersebut dibuat daripada bahan acrylic iaitu material yang telah ditetapkan untuk pembinaan setiap gelanggang futsal.
"Saiz gelanggang pula berukuran 42x25 meter iaitu bagi gelanggang utama (Mokhtar Dahari) manakala 10 lagi gelanggang berukuran 19x27 meter.

"Sudah pasti semua gelanggang tersebut selamat untuk digunakan dan ia tidak perlu dikhuatiri," kata Salleh.
Pasukan-pasukan yang beraksi pada Rentap Futsal Putrajaya Kosmo! nanti pasti dapat menikmati suasana perlawanan yang selesa kerana semua gelanggang memiliki kualiti bertaraf antarabangsa.
Kejohanan Rentap Futsal Putrajaya menawarkan hadiah wang tunai keseluruhan sebanyak RM61,950.

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...

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 ...

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...
