OCM Akan Suarakan Isu Karate Pada Mesyuarat Majlis SGF Di Singapura

KUALA LUMPUR, 24 Feb (Bernama) -- Majlis Olimpik Malaysia (OCM) akan merayu agar acara karate dipertandingkan dalam Sukan SEA 2015 pada mesyuarat majlis Persekutuan Sukan SEA (SGF) di Singapura pada 28 April.

Presidennya Tunku Tan Sri Imran Tuanku Ja'afar berkata penerimaan acara itu sebagai acara dalam Sukan SEA penting kerana ia menjadi lubuk pingat emas bagi kontinjen Malaysia dalam beberapa edisi sukan berkenaan sebelum ini.

"Walaupun peluang untuk melihat acara karate dipertandingkan pada 2015 (Sukan SEA di Singapura) terlalu tipis, kami akan cuba sedaya upaya untuk mengembalikan keyakinan negara tuan rumah pada mesyuarat itu nanti, tetapi merekalah yang akan memberi kata putus tentang jenis sukan yang ingin dimasukkan," katanya selepas merasmikan Kejohanan Taekwando Junior Nestle Koko Crunch 2014 di Wisma OCM di sini Isnin.

Pada awalnya, Singapura mencadangkan 30 jenis sukan dipertandingkan pada 2015 dalam mesyuarat Majlis SGF di Naypyitaw, Myanmar tahun lepas dan baru-baru ini, SGF bersetuju menambah enam lagi acara sukan, tidak termasuk karate, dalam mesyuarat di republik itu.

Tunku Imran berkata senarai muktamad sukan yang akan dipertandingkan pada Sukan SEA 2015 dijangka diumumkan SGF Jun ini.

Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Kerja Jawatankuasa Penganjur Sukan Asia Tenggara Singapura (SINGSOC) Lim Teck Yin dipetik sebuah agensi berita asing sebagai berkata negara itu akan menganjurkan 30 sukan dan tidak menolak kemungkinan menambah lima atau lebih banyak jenis sukan ke dalam Sukan SEA 2015.

Sukan yang termasuk dalam senarai sedia ada ialah akuatik, memanah, olahraga, badminton, biliard dan snuker, boling, berkanu, berbasikal, lawan pedang, bola sepak, golf, gimnastik, hoki, judo, bola jaring, pencak silat, ragbi (tujuh sebelah), perahu layar, sepak takraw, menembak, bola lisut, skuasy, ping pong, taekwondo, tenis, perlumbaan perahu tradisional, triatlon, ski air dan wusyu.

Mengenai kejohanan itu, sebanyak 1,800 atlet taekwondo berusia 12 tahun akan beradu kehebatan dalam tiga acara peringkat wilayah - utara, selatan dan pantai timur - sebelum mara ke Grand Final pada 1 Jun di Stadium Persatuan Badminton Kuala Lumpur di Cheras.

Pertandingan bagi wilayah utara akan berlangsung di Dewan SJK(C) Yuk Chai, Ipoh, Perak pada 8 Mac, wilayah selatan di Dewan Tun Ali Bukit Katil, Melaka pada 5 April dan wilayah pantai timur di Stadium Tertutup Kuantan, Pahang pada 26 April.

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 ...

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...

Sports press clippings on the 24 April 2008

Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob (centre) speaks to athletes after giving away the Olympic qualifying incentives in Putrajaya yesterday. — Pic: RAMDZAN MASIAM Thomas Cup Equally Important, Says Ismail PUTRAJAYA, April 23 (Bernama) -- Although Malaysia want badly a badminton gold at the Beijing Olympics in August, winning the Thomas Cup in Jakarta in May is equally important, said Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob. "My ministry deems all events participated by the national badminton squad as important including the Thomas Cup, which Malaysia last won in 1992. "Statements made that the Beijing Olympics takes precedence over other events is not the position of the ministry," he told reporters at his office here today. Ismail said no matter what events Malaysians competed, seeking glory for the nation should be the overriding priority. He said this when asked to comment on remarks by national badminton chief coach Yap Kim Hock on...
