IPG Sukan KPM bakal ubah senario sukan di sekolah

PADA 15 Oktober yang lalu, Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin merangkap Menteri Pelajaran telah melancarkan IPG Sukan bertempat di IPG Kampus Raja Melewar Seremban. 

Dua IPG lain ialah IPG Kampus Perlis dan IPG Kampus Tun Abdul Razak yang merupakan fasa pertama IPG Sukan ini oleh kerana ada tiga lagi IPG yang telah dikenal pasti sebelum ini akan dilaksanakan kemudian.
Menteri Besar Negeri Sembilan, Datuk Seri Utama, Mohamad Hasan juga hadir di majlis berkenaan.

Kalau kita masih ingat bahawa Menteri Pelajaran telah mengumumkan betapa perlunya ditubuhkan IPG Sukan oleh Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia ketika beliau merasmikan Kejohanan Olahraga Kebangsaan MSSM pada bulan Mei 2009 di Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil Kuala Lumpur.

Walaupun ada pihak yang menyifatkan tempoh dua tahun yang diambil sehingga terlancarnya IPG sukan ini adalah dikira lama tetapi kita patut bersyukur kerana ia dapat direalisasikan juga.
Sebenarnya idea dan cadangan mewujudkan sebuah maktab ataupun institusi dalam KPM yang dapat melatih dan melahirkan jurulatih sukan untuk sekolah telah lama diperkatakan.

Saya telah menghadiri beberapa perbincangan mengenai perkara ini diawal tahun 90-an tetapi perbincangan tersebut hanya setakat perbincangan sahaja. Tidak lebih dari itu.
Kita semua tahu terdapat lebih kurang 10,000 buah sekolah dan seramai 5.4 juta orang murid di bawah kendalian KPM.

Kalau setiap sekolah memerlukan seorang jurulatih sukan maka KPM perlu melatih 10,000 orang jurulatih.
Kalau setiap sekolah memerlukan lima guru yang mempunyai pengetahuan dan kebolehan melatih acara sukan maka KPM memerlukan 50,000 orang jurulatih.

Ini tidak termasuk keperluan melatih pegawai teknik sukan untuk mengendalikan sekurang - kurangnya sebanyak 24 jenis sukan yang dipertandingkan di peringkat Majlis Sukan Sekolah -Sekolah Malaysia (MSSM). Kalau diambil kira kursus- kursus ulang kaji yang perlu diadakan setiap masa bagi jurulatih dan pegawai teknik sudah tentulah IPG ini tidak cukup tangan.

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...

Govt Always Gives Emphasis To Sporting Culture, Says PM

KUALA TERENGGANU, May 29 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badaw i said the government always gives emphasis on cultivating a strong sporting culture in achieving excellence at the international level. As such, the Prime Minister said, it was important to scout for young talents in sports. "I observe that the Malaysia Games (Sukma) has become one of the important platforms to do so. "In this arena, the potentials and skills of the youngsters can be identified for development so that they can achieve greater success in sports," he said in his message in the souvenir book of the 12th Sukma from May 31 until June 9. Abdullah said he was aware that competition in sports was very keen and challenging but this did not mean that Malaysian athletes were incapable of competing at the international level. "The fact is that we have all the characteristics required to be excellent. We must inculcate a strong fighting spirit so that we don't easily surrender,...

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...
