Darshan Singh dipilih Naib Presiden ISF


KUALA LUMPUR - Presiden Persatuan Sukan Ekstrem Malaysia (MESA), Tan Sri Darshan Singh Gill telah dipilih sebagai naib presiden Persekutuan Papan Luncur (Skateboarding) Antabangsa (ISF).

Pemilihan Darshan sebagai calon pertama dari Malaysia dan juga Asia dilakukan semasa Perhimpunan Agung ISF di Boston, Amerika Syarikat, baru-baru ini.

"Perhimpunan Agung itu diadakan sempena Kejohanan Papan Luncur Sedunia di Boston. ISF dianggotai oleh 81 buah negara,” kata Darshan di sini, hari ini.

Bekas presiden Persekutuan Berbasikal Asia (ACC) itu berkata, hanya seorang peserta Malaysia, Kieron John Brodie mengambil bahagian pada kejohanan dunia itu.

Selepas melepasi pusingan awal, dia layak ke pusingan akhir sebelum menduduki tangga ke-31 daripada 57 peserta pada kejohanan dunia itu, katanya.

"Ini membuktikan peserta negara semakin berani untuk menempa nama dalam sukan ekstrem dunia,” katanya. - Bernama

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.

Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...

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...
