‘Kami belum sedia’


Kelana Jaya: Teka-teki pengendali baru Harimau Malaya berterusan apabila Persatuan Bolasepak Malaysia (FAM) masih belum bersedia mengumumkan pengganti Datuk K Rajagobal yang tidak dilanjutkan kontrak penghujung tahun lalu.

Malah Setiausaha Agung FAM, Datuk Hamidin Mohd Amin (gambar) membayangkan ada kemungkinan calon lain dipertimbangkan walaupun badan induk sudah menyenarai pendek tiga calon sebelum ini.

Tiga calon itu adalah bekas jurulatih Iraq, Wolfgang Sidka, bekas pemain Real Madrid dan Barcelona, Luis Milla bersama jurulatih Mozambique, Gern Engels.

“Kita tidak boleh umumkan kerana terdapat kekangan tertentu, jawatan ketua jurulatih negara akan diumumkan penghujung bulan depan atau awal Julai, mungkin juga ada calon lain selain tiga calon disenarai pendek itu.

“Ia termasuklah pengumuman mengenai exco yang bakal memimpin sejumlah jawatankuasa tetap di FAM selepas pemilihan barisan kepimpinan yang baru.

“Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah (Presiden FAM) sudah mengarahkan saya meneliti perkara ini,” kata Hamidin.

Sejak awal tahun ini, jawatan ketua jurulatih negara dipangku Datuk Ong Kim Swee yang juga ketua jurulatih bawah 23 tahun negara yang dilihat memberikan suntikan positif terhadap Harimau Malaya termasuk menewaskan Yemen 2-1 dalam aksi terakhir kelayakan Piala Asia 2015.

Presiden Persatuan Pemain Bola Sepak Profesional Malaysia (PFAM) Hairuddin Omar kelmarin berharap FAM segera melantik pengendali baru skuad negara kerana Harimau Malaya akan beraksi di Piala AFF penghujung tahun nanti dengan saingan domestik juga semakin menghampiri penghujung sekali gus akan menyukarkan jurulatih baru membuat penilaian yang tepat terhadap pemain.

Sementara itu Hamidin menjelaskan FAM akan cuba mendapat satu tiket play-off kepada pasukan tempatan untuk beraksi di Liga Juara-Juara Asia 2015 namun mereka perlu memenuhi beberapa kriteria ditetapkan Konfederasi Bolasepak Asia (AFC) dan menghantar permohonan untuk mendapatkan lesen sebelum 31 Oktober nanti.

“Kemungkinan besar peluang akan diberikan kepada juara Liga Super dan sekiranya mendapat lesen, keputusan terperinci akan diputuskan Jawatankuasa Pertandingan Tempatan,” jelasnya.

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...
