Datuk Lee Chong Wei Sertai Proton Nasional Sirkit 2010

KUALA TERENGGANU, 31 Jan (Bernama) -- Jaguh badminton negara, Datuk Lee Chong Wei adalah antara 54 pemain yang disenaraikan akan menyertai kejohanan badminton Proton Nasional Sirkit Grand Prix Final 2010 di Stadium Negeri di sini dari 18-21 Februari ini.

Naib Presiden Persatuan Badminton Terengganu (PBT) Harry Isaac berkata semua pemain terbaik di negara ini, baik perseorangan ataupun beregu akan hadir dalam kejohanan kali ini.

"Ini kali kedua Terengganu telah diberi penghormatan untuk mengendalikan kejohanan berprestij ini. Kali pertama ialah dua tahun lalu," katanya kepada Bernama.

Harry berkata kejohanan itu menawarkan hadiah keseluruhan bernilai RM84,000 dan kategori yang dipertandingkan ialah perseorangan lelaki-wanita, beregu lelaki-wanita, beregu campuran serta perseorangan lelaki-wanita remaja.

Beliau berkata kejohanan itu akan memberi peluang kepada peminat-peminat badminton di negeri ini menyaksikan jaguh-jaguh badminton negeri beraksi.

Dalam perkembangan lain, Harry berkata buat masa ini PBT tidak dapat bergerak cergas disebabkan masalah kewangan terhad.

Untuk mengatasi masalah itu, beliau berkata persatuan merancang akan membina dewan badminton sendiri sebagai punca pendapatan, selain untuk aktiviti pemain.

Harry berkata untuk mencungkil bakat, persatuan akan menghidupkan balik klinik-klinik badminton di setiap daerah mulai tahun ini.

Katanya yang lebih penting lagi ialah persatuan akan berusaha mendapatkan jurulatih berwibawa, kemungkinan dari luar negara untuk membimbing pemain-pemain Terengganu.

"Kita agak terkebelakang dalam sukan badminton berbanding negeri-negeri lain," katanya.

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...
