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...

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 ...
