Bidaan Hos Piala Dunia 2034 Dan Penganjuran ASL Antara Cabaran Azzuddin

PETALING JAYA, 27 Jun (Bernama) -- Bidaan negara-negara Asean untuk menjadi tuan rumah Piala Dunia pada 2034 selain cadangan penganjuran Liga Super Asean (ASL) bakal menjadi dua cabaran awal kepada Setiausaha Agung Persekutuan Bola Sepak Asean (AFF) yang baharu, Datuk Azzuddin Ahmad.

Bekas Setiausaha Agung Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysian (FAM) itu yang akan memulakan tugas baharunya secara rasmi mulai 1 Julai ini berkata dua perkara berkenaan antara yang dibincangkan pada mesyuarat ahli gabungan AFF di Phnom Penh, Kemboja, baru-baru ini.

"Saya percaya sudah sampai tahap sehingga 70 peratus mengenai penganjuran Liga Super Asean...kertas cadangan berkenaan perkara itu akan diajukan kepada Konfederasi Bola Sepak Asia (AFC) untuk mendapat kelulusan dan sokongan.

"Ahli gabungan AFF juga mahu sukan bola sepak di peringkat akar umbi melibatkan negara Asean dipertingkatkan ke tahap lebih baik," katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian kepada pemberita selepas pelantikan Naib Presiden FAM Datuk Hamidin Mohd Amin sebagai Setiausaha Agung FAM yang baharu yang diumumkan oleh Presiden FAM, Sultan Pahang Sultan Ahmad Shah hari ini.

Azzuddin menerima surat pelantikannya selaku Setiausaha Agung AFF yang baharu pada Ahad lepas bagi mengganti Datuk Seri Paul Money Samuel yang bersara awal berikutan masalah kesihatan.

Mengenai pelantikan Hamidin, Azzuddin yakin pengalaman luas beliau mampu melonjakkan badan induk bola sepak kebangsaan itu ke arah lebih maju.

"Saya yakin dengan pengalaman beliau (Hamidin) yang sangat luas selain hubungan yang mesra dengan pihak media dan ahli gabungan FAM, beliau dapat mencapai kejayaan yang lebih tinggi.

"Saya percaya beliau akan teruskan usaha-usaha yang lebih baik untuk mempertingkatkan lagi pengurusan di pihak sekretariat FAM," katanya.

Sepanjang berkhidmat di FAM, Azzuddin pernah memegang beberapa jawatan penting dalam badan induk bola sepak negara itu seperti Ahli Jawatankuasa Bebas dari 2000 hingga 2006, Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Disiplin (2001-2004) dan Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pengadil (April-September 2006).

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. I will try lah … Wah, so hard lah today.” These are some of the common statements I hear from our juniors nowadays. It is not only in badminton. It is the easy-going, laid-back attitude and lack of competitiveness at grassroots level that we have problems producing quality players. I have travelled quite a bit. After ending my decade-long career with the national team, I went to play in the league in Europe. It’s different there. The European athletes know what they want. And they do it with real focus. Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...

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 ...

Organising Major Sports Events Can Inspire Sports Culture Among The People - Khairy

PUTRAJAYA, June 5 (Bernama) -- Organising major sports events can help inspire sports culture among the people and ensure a healthy lifestyle said Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin. Khairy said the Tour of Malaysia cycling race organised since 1963, for example, can encourage more people to take the sport in a more competitive way or just for recreation purposes. "A study carried out by a world renown medical journal, The Lancet, revealed that 61 percent of adults in Malaysia do not engage themselves in active sports. "A study by the Health Ministry revealed that only 25 percent of Malaysians exercise," he said in his speech when launching the 2013 Tour of Malaysia (Jelajah Malaysia) at the Youth and Sports Ministry, here, Wednesday. "Cycling, though not as popular here as in countries like Denmark, the activity is becoming popular among the people as can be seen through an increase in sale of bicycles for recreation," he sa...
