KUALA LUMPUR - Pemain badminton remaja bakal berkampung di Kuatan bagi mengharungi Kejohanan Grand Final Sirkit Remaja Kebangsaan 100PLUS yang akan diadakan di Dewan Persatuan Badminton Pahang, mula esok hingga 30 Mei ini. 

Aksi Grand Final ini amat penting kerana pegawai dan panel pemilihan dari Persatuan Badminton Malaysia (BAM) akan memantau prestasi pemain dan melihat potensi pemain bagi memastikan tempat dalam skuad badminton remaja negara.

Naib Presiden BAM merangkap Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pertandingan, Datuk Ir. Mohamad Al-Amin Abdul Majid berkata, bakat pemain akan dicungkil melalui kejohanan tersebut.

Katanya, ia merupakan program pembangunan BAM.
"Kejohanan ini adalah batu loncatan buat pemain remaja, untuk memperagakan bakat mereka seterusnya cemerlang dalam kejohanan ini yang telah memasuki peringkat Grand Final selepas dua sirkit awal untuk tiga zon yang berlainan, ," katanya pada sidang media di sini, semalam.

Jelasnya, seramai 340 pemain layak beraksi dalam kategori Bawah 12, 14, 16 dan dan 18.
"Melihat kepada dua sirkit sebelum ini Grand Final, saya rasa objektif yang telah kami tetapkan hampir tercapai, rata-rata pemain adalah pelajar sekolah dan kejohanan ini sangat penting buat pemain remaja.
"Inilah gelanggang penentu sebelum mereka terpilih menyertai skuad remaja kebangsaan seterusnya berpeluang beraksi di peringkat Asia dan Dunia," katanya.

Dua sirkit awal sebelum ini ia terbahagi kepada tiga zon.
Zon A terbahagi kepada Perlis, Kedah, Pulau Pinang, Perak, Selangor, Terengganu dan Kelantan.
Zon B pula merangkumi Johor, Pahang, Melak, Negeri Sembilan dan Kuala Lumpur manakala Zon C di Sabah dan Sarawak.

Ditanya mengenai peluang pemain remaja untuk menjadi pemain sehebat Datuk Lee Chong Wei, Mohamed Al-Amin berkata, terpulang kepada jurulatih untuk memutuskan bila masa terbaik mendedahkan pemain remaja di peringkat antarabangsa.

"Pemain remaja mempunyai banyak peluang untuk membuktikan mereka mampu menjadi pemain hebat dengan didedahkan dalam kejohanan seperti Remaja Asia, Remaja Dunia, Siri Emas dan Satelit.
"Kita tidak boleh terus menghantar pemain remaja beraksi di kejohanan Siri Super.

''Biar mereka menimba pengalaman di kejohanan lain yang setanding dengan usia mereka terlebih dahulu," katanya.

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...
