Schmid dilantik pengarah teknikal

HAMIDIN (kanan) mengesahkan pelantikan Schmid sebagai pengarah teknikal baharu FAM.

PENOLONG jurulatih Austria, Fritz Markus Schmid menjadi pilihan Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM) untuk dilantik sebagai Pengarah Teknikal FAM yang baharu.

Perkara itu disahkan oleh Setiausaha Agung FAM, Datuk Hamidin Mohd. Amin semalam.
Menurut Hamidin, Schmid yang dijadualkan tiba Jumaat ini akan bertanggungjawab untuk memantau prestasi jurulatih-jurulatih di bawah naungan FAM untuk tempoh selama tiga tahun.

Selain itu, pengendali kelahiran Switzerland itu juga memiliki tugasan untuk memantau prestasi skuad Harimau Muda A, B, dan C termasuk aspek pembangunan bola sepak FAM.
"Benar, beliau (Schmid) dilantik sebagai Pengarah Teknikal baharu FAM. Dia akan tiba di sini (Malaysia) pada Jumaat ini untuk memulakan tugasan baharunya.

"Beliau akan bertanggungjawab memantau prestasi jurulatih termasuk jurulatih kebangsaan selain melihat prestasi para pemain serta pembangunan bola sepak di peringkat akar umbi.

"Malah, beliau juga memiliki kuasa untuk terlibat memberikan pandangan dalam sesi pemilihan jurulatih kebangsaan tidak lama lagi," katanya pada sidang akhbar di Wisma FAM, Kelana Jaya semalam.

Schmid, 54, pernah bertugas sebagai penolong jurulatih kelab Tottenham Hotspur, FC Basel 1893 dan FC Aargau selain menjadi pengurus kelab SC Kriens, Team Aargau U21, Grasshopper Club Zürich II dan Racing Club Zürich.

Dalam perkembangan lain, Hamidin turut menjelaskan bahawa FAM akan mengumumkan jurulatih baharu skuad Harimau Malaya selepas Kongres FAM ke-50 pada 25 Mei nanti.

Kosmo! sebelum ini melaporkan, FAM hampir-hampir melantik Phillipe Troussier sebagai jurulatih baharu tetapi tidak meneruskan perjanjian tersebut selepas bekas jurulatih Jepun itu menuntut permintaan melampau, Januari lalu.

Sejak insiden tersebut, FAM mengambil pendekatan kunci mulut dan ramai dikatakan berminat untuk mengisi kekosongan yang ditinggalkan bekas pengendali, Datuk K. Rajagobal termasuk bekas pemain Chelsea, Marcel Desailly.

"Selepas kongres itu nanti, FAM akan umumkan nama jurulatih baharu.
"Sebenarnya, kita sudah mengadakan perbincangan (jurulatih baharu Harimau Malaya) di dalam dan luar negeri. Kalau saya bagitahu calon, nanti ada spekulasi lagi," katanya yang enggan mengulas lebih lanjut.

Buat masa ini, Datuk Ong Kim Swee dilantik sebagai pengendali sementara skuad kebangsaan.

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...
