Is the Sport Schools right in recalling the hockey players?

Below is an anonymous comment i had received for another article which had no relevance to that topic. However the content of the comment seems to take on the Sport Schools and has forthrightly questioned the schools' Administrators on whether they are following the objective of why the sport schools exist.

This seems to be part of a continuous clash between the Administrators of Sport Schools and Malaysian hockey administration. From the onset it has to be recognised that Malaysian hockey administration in this context means National Sports Council (NSC) ie the "Pelapis Programme", Team Management of Project 2013 hockey team and certain Malaysian Hockey League (MHL) teams.

The first clash took place when a certain MHL team wanted Sport Schools players to play for their team in the MHL tournament. Strangely, the answer that came was a "NO", inclusive of those who had finished their SPM. The reason was that the Sport School was having a tour to Sabah and these players were involved. This was a reasoning that could not hold any rationale, as the boys who finished their SPM were technically not in the Sport School. The school should be taking the players still with the school for such a tour. Still it was the reason and something certain coaches found difficult to swallow.

The misunderstanding did not stop there. Now the Project 2013 team has players from both the Sport Schools and they had began training last Sunday. Suddenly the players were recalled and not given permission to continue training. The players had indicated that the school Administrators were keen that the boys plan for their SPM studies and that was the reason for the recall.

Below is the text of the comment and in "bold green" is the issue pertaining to the misunderstanding per the anonymous writer. Question is whether that is the "whole truth" of the story or is there more to it. Continue reading.

"IS BJSS IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

Since the end of MHL, Malaysian hockey lovers was praising the MHF committee for their wonderous magnificent job done.

And everyone is also looking forward to our Malaysian Senior Team under the leadership of Stephen van Huizen and Beng Hai and Junior team (Project 2013) under the leadership of Dharma in action in the Quadrangular games at the Tun Razak Stadium March 4-7 2010.

All is going on fine with the senior team but what about the Junior Team. 34 names were listed in the first phase selection together with BJSS and BPSS boys of which some are still in form five this year. BJSS unlike other schools has again refrained their boys from attending the Malaysian Junior hockey team training. Previously, BJSS have also refrained these boys from participation in the MHL league in which BPSS and Setapak boys participated. These boys were informed to tell the Junior World Cup Coach that they are withdrawing themselves from the Junior team to concentrate on their studies and exam this year. The School have not realised that day by day they are killing the instinct of these boys who have come from various parts of the country at a very young age leaving their parents, brothers, sisters and all in the family to physically and mentally prepare and play for the country. Its not paying off.

Education Minister cum Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyddin Yassin and Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek said today that they are ready to revamp and support school's sports programme. He said that sports lies in the effective implementation of the programme at school grassroot levels to churn out world beaters and it is compulsory for every school for bigger collaboration in revamping the school sports system. Tan Sri also said that in Malaysia, teachers spent extra time giving tuition but in other countries, they are on the field.

In htpp://www.bjss.edu.my/, Mrs Ching Leng Sim, the principal said that the school is committed to producing outstanding sportsmen and women making BJSS vision statement "BJSS Generates World Class Athletics" a reality. She also said the academic scheduling is flexible so that it is conducive to the training and competition needs of the students. Contra to her statement, the school has arranged tight timetable with additional classes in the morning, evening and night apart from their normal classes all day to prevent students from attending the national training.

The basic fundamental objective of having a national sports school is to prepare and deliver young promising sportsmen and women for the country. The earlier they represent the country, the better they will perform in years to come as they will have enough international exposure and strength to outbeat the opponents

BJSS and BPSS has been undisputed producing finest junior athletics in the past but the path has been seen fading as they are heading the students in the wrong direction. Mrs Chin says in her website that BJSS is providing excellent education to prepare aspiring for a life after sports. This clearly shows she has lost the national sports schools identity and her credibility to lead the sports school to the highest level. She has lost the core values of a National Sports School and is not in line with the nation's interest, country's goal and ambition. Sports governing bodies like MSN, JPJS and KBS to look into this matter very very seriously and immediately. " (End of comment)

However, according to sources from the Sport Schools, their version of the story is different. They themselves are shocked as to all the fuss. The story that emerges from there seem to indicate that someone is attempting to "bulldoze" his way to get things done without following the procedures which safeguard the best interest of the players ie both as sportspersons and students.

Apparently the following points must be considered before apportioning blame:
  1. The Project 2013 team training commenced on Sunday ie 21st February.

  2. The letter with training schedule from NSC was dated Friday 19th February and only sent out on Monday 22nd February.

  3. This did not give the Sport Schools the time to organise themselves as the training had commenced without their knowledge ie to reschedule lessons for players with the necessary teachers and hopefully to fit into the Project 2013 training programme would not be an easy task.

  4. After all the Sport School has to look into the students' best interests ie sports and studies, which is not an easy responsibility.

This therefore begs the question whether NSC and the Project 2013 Team Management did it the right way. Perhaps what they are facing is the consequences of not getting things done in an organised and proper fashion. To start training without going through the process and procedure in a timely manner with parties that are the core element in the chain ie Sport Schools, is definitely a breach of basic rules of management.

If this information is factual then i think the Sport School cannot be blamed for recalling the players. The Sport Schools have an onerous task and they have to carry it out carefully. In this instance, what they did was right in the best interest of the students. In the short term what the Sport School did may have disrupted training but what they have done is to ensure that policies of the Sport Schools are followed and safeguarded, something the Schools Administrators must be praised for.

All these could have been avoided if NSC and Project 2013 Team Management had sat and talked to Sport Schools in advance so that they could get their act together and plan accordingly. The attitude of "bulldozing" and thereafter starting a "finger pointing" exercise would only create more "wounds" and problems for the future. Finally the people who are supposed to see hockey flourish may in fact be unintentionally destroying it.

ingtymieRemember, the Principal and The Teacher did not allow their boys to play in the MHL.

But The Teacher is the coach of SAPURA.
WHY?

BJSS please get your PRIORITIES right.

These National sports schools are feeded with the best sports students from all states right from the age of 13 to be molded and become the country's future athletes. They are groomed to represent the country and if they fail, the sports school failed in their task to produce world class athletes.

Actual fact is the sports school has failed since it was established because non of its students have ever produce any medals in the olympics. So the government has been wasting its millions of ringgit generously to schools which cannot bring results.

The Govermnent is funding these sports school with millions of ringgit annually on highly nutrious food and sports facilities to train the students in their sports field everyday without fail and when called up for national training camp to report. Unlike now, it seems that these students have been groomed to hybernate in their classrooms.

With regards to their studies, the students study by simple modules and the teachers can plan to have their extra classes not to clash with their national training.

Please bear in mind that the sports school students entry into Pra-U is with minimum qualification but their entry into Olympics as world class champions requires world's highest qualification. As such success is not an overnight victory but a strong foundation of hardship trainning and national exposure right from the earliest age possible.

A medal achieved in the World Cup events is a reward to each and every malaysian. And every malaysian should help these individuals achieve the country's ambition so it be their mother, father, teacher or couch.

So, Sports school please get your PRIORITIES right and release your boys for national camp training. Witholding them is already violation by law as they belong to the country and not to any individual or schools. And please do not mislead the boys with the wrong intentions and get caught ofguard.

Kalaulah ibubapa nak bagi exellent education, takpayah hantar anak ke Bukit Jalil.

Duduk rumah saja, tak payoh pegi jaujau hantar anak kebukit Jalil. Dekat rumah pun ada sekoleh bagui, bolih hantar anak tiapiap hari pegi tution.

Memang pikir tak logik. Pelik betul kalau budak budak ni dipilih masuk skuad remaja hoki malaysia tak mau melapur diri, lebih lebih lagi budak2 sekolah sukan negara. Memang ada yang tak kena.

Pihak Sekolah perlu memberi motivasi dan dorongan yang betul kepada pelajau pelajau untok menguatkan semangat kesukanan mereka demi masa negara . Jangan sekalikali cuba memupuk racun dalam pemikiran mereka. Ia akan makan diri sendiri

I happen to had a chat with the member of the team management of the team.

Most of the boys from bjss especially the form 5 were there on the first day of training.

I heard the official saying everyday bjss calling up to ask for the letter nearly 10 times but never mention about all this classes but suddenly when training begins say all this.Say earlier, so other players who wants to play
can be call and not distrupt team programme
Now say the letter reach late and people bulldozing.Even if it is true which i m not sure,bjss should have the simple common sense to discuss the matter and not kill the students hope by coming up with a timetable even the science school student wont do.

I am a former national player and i have gone for centralised training during my time we go for training and study on our own in the room as our school is not in kl.We didnt have this pra u for sportman then.Now with 4 pass or 3 credits u get yourself in for pra u.That is a handicapped result but the government wants to help sportman who sacrifice for the country.You take governments money spend on this kids which estimate to RM25,000 per head for a year.Assume there is 30 students vary from 19,18,17.RM 25,000 x 5yrs x 30 student = RM 3.75 million.

I check you dont have a single 19 yrs old boy in the team.U have 4- 18 yrs old boy.Now u have 7- 17.I saw a fat boy playing and when check it seems the boy is a Form 5 leaver who has put on 8kg.How could this happen.It seems this boy suppose to play for unikl in the mhl with the other 3 boys but not allow.Why? Because of policy?How come one player was allowed to play for klhc?Same policy changes all the time,is it?

Do you know mhl starts during school holidays?Do you know mhl clubs trains after school?Do you know mhl are played at weekends?Then why the hell are you killing the players from being expose?Do you know MSN is spending millions on exposing players but for bjss is go for holiday and come back overweight.Instead of training the future national players, your school coach is coaching a club.How many hockey coach you have in the school?Only one?Why?

Now comes the junior league.With this timetable can they play?We wait and see.

Do you know the previous national players became doctors,accountants with limited time going to school.Do you know how difficult it was then?Today you take the governments money and feed all this student who havent even serve the nation.How many of them is actually really going to serve the country?Its disgusting.If their parents wants them to study,ask them to leave the school and ask their parents to fund them.This school is for future national player who has no choice but to study and play.For the teachers if they cannot help the students after training,ask them to vacate the school quarters they are staying and ask them to find their own house like ordinary teachers.

Go on spoon feed the students with free lodging,food and other perks to this students and hopefully you can produce some doctors or lawyers.And then be proud of it.If can breast feed them too.

If they achieve the 3 credits or 4 passes,proudly announce in the papers the target is achieved.

For your info, as a former international we went through hell to achieve our goal to be a national player.

Go on do what you think is the best and let us wait and see how many bjss player makes to national team during this time.Can"t wait for 2012 to come.

Remember the country image is the biggest thing.If the government only thinks what you think, then there wont even be a Sport school.You wont even be there.

I heard that the DR and a Lawyer volunteer to become Team Managers so that they can show off their little knowledge of hockey to the President.

One will do a surgery and another one will protect and sell using legal jargon words to help msian hockey.

Both has proven could not achieve anything.

Better ask the GM to wera two hats GM and Team Manager of Malaysian Hockey Team. All the players and hockey fraternity respects him for what he have achieved during his playing days and now as GM.

We support Mike to take the lead or else this DR & Lawyer going to kill msian hockey afterall they only think about themselves and how to enrich their selfiness.

Ask them, what have they done so far. DR been there 8 years and waated all the time, position and resources. Newly crown VP one and half years nothing much to shout about.

Only they know is to drink and talk about the future on the tables of restaurants with their bible Johnny Walker...........

We Support George and Mirnawan.

I feel the best person to become the team manager for our hockey boys in the Commonwealth Games and Asian Games is no other than Malay Mail veteran Johnson Fernandez.
He does not have a PHD in psychology, but he is a master when it comes to convincing others.
I know him like the back of my hand, as Johnson, Rokk and myself were like brothers when we were journalists.
Johnson's Valley Voice column was a great hit, in fact, his writing style was so influential that I think Ghandi, you have picked it up judging by the stories on your blog.

WHY ARE YOU KILLING HOCKEY IN THESE BOYS AND PRODUCING DELIVERY AND COUNTER BOYS? EVEN IF THEY WOULD NOT HAVE STUDIED, COULD HAVE ENABLED THEM TO ATTAIN THE ABOVE JOBS. MIND YOU THAT BOYS WHO REALLY WANTED TO EXCELL IN STUDIES HAD LEFT BJSS AND JOINED OTHER SCHOOLS TO PURSUE THEIR CAREER. THESE BOYS LEAVING THE SCHOOL TO PURSUE TO STUDY IN OTHER SCHOOLS SHOWS THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION PROVIDED BY BJSS SCHOOL.
PLEASE FOCUS ON THE PRINCIPLE AIM OF THE SCHOOL - "SPORTS". IF NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF THE SCHOOL TO BUKIT JALIL "NON-SPORTS SCHOOL" OR "KFC/MAC/PIZZA HUT CAREER ORIENTED SCHOOL"

I do agree to the comment of February 26, 2010 10:15 PM. In addition to this, I also find a comment of a so called journalist to has talked about appointing manager in this post on "Is the Sports schools...... hockey players? Such is the understanding of a journalist, then why to blame others who comment under this topic?
However in response to the comment of the journalist -
The so called journalist wants another journalist to be team manager. Mind you there is a hell of a difference between a team manager and a psycholgist. Team managers duty is not that of a psychologist and just by writing good or bad about a player in paper is not going to help the sportsman to improve performance. Please go through the duty of a team manager published by FIH/MHF as a reference to enable him to the duties/roles assigned and other additional roles which MHF has assigned. Have a check... how many journalists are nominated as team managers world over.

Kepincangan BJSS kian terbongkar

Mesyuarat Khas Jawatankuasa Bersama Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia, Kementerian Belia dan Sukan serta Majlis sukan Negara Bincang Dilema Skuad Hoki BJSS pada 3hb Mac 2010
--------------------------------

Saya berharap jawapan jawatankuasa akan berpandukan kepada dasar dan matlamat asal tertubuhnya Sekolah Sukan Negara. Saya juga berharap jawatankuasa ini tidak menunduk kepada tindak-tanduk kemahuan sesetengah pihak sekolah yang sudah tercicir arahnya daripada yang hala-tuju sebenar umpama AJARAN SESAT SEKOLAH SUKAN.

Mesyuarat khas ini juga akan memberi panduan serta halatuju sebenar sekolah sukan negara ini kepada ibubapa serta pelajar yang masih menuntut di sekolah lain menunggu giliran untuk dipanggil ke sekolah tersebut.

When there is a war, U don't ask the soldiers if they want to go for the war. Just announce the namelist and ask tkem to report for duty as this is their responsibility and duty to serve their country and nation.

Samelike, these BJSS boys have reported to the national sports school to trained and play for their country. If they are called up for national training camp, they got to go. This is the national callup to their country which they have promised upon reporting to Bukit Jalil National Sports School. If they are not prepaired for this callup, than don't go to this national school. This school is deserved for those who are prepared to serve the country and nation. Asking these boys to pen a letter that they do not want to participate in national training clearly shows that the coward scoool adminis-TRAITORS are caught redhanded. They now want to wash their hands and put the blames on the boys.

BJSS HAVE NOT REALISE THE AFTER EFFECT OF THEIR OWN DOINGS :
If BJSS stop their students from attending national training camps, this will lead to many other students and teachers follow suit. Thus one fine day will come that BJSS will be a onestop nonsports school with white elephant sports facilities. There will be over- weight students in the classroom full time preparing for exams and PRA-U one year long. The field will be empty. The gym will be filled with dust. I am not saying that studies and exams are not important but the boys should go for national training at least one's a day to keep up with the national team's pace and requirements. This is MANDATORY. This will also allow the coaches and the association to prepare a crystal clear training programme for the JWC. If there are many interuption to the training programmes, than the 2013 and 2016 will be another EMPTY DREAM for the malaysians.

(To continue with bahasa)
------------------------

Puan Pengetua BJSS telah berjanji akan menerapkan semangat kesukanan yang tertinggi kepada pelajar-pelajar sekolah sukan. Puan juga telah berjanji akan menjana atlit-atlit bertaraf dunia berpandukan kepada dasar dan matlamat sekolah. Kini beliau telah gagal mancapai matlamat tersebut yang dijanjikan. BJSS hanya berupaya manjana atlit-atlit bertaraf sekolah yang berupaya menjadi jaguh kampung sahaja. Kalaulah begini rupanya, tunggulah sampai kucing bertanduk pun negara kita tak kemana dalam sukan. Baik tutup saja sekolah sukan negara ini dan hantar balik budak-budak ini ke sekolah sukan negeri masing-masing.

Saya melahirkan perasaan kesal ini kerana Pihak sekolah tidak bolih memandang rendah agenda kerajaan dan mewujudkan agendanya yang tersembunyi. Pihak sekolah tidak bolih menuding jari kepada pelajar pelajar sekolah dan manyalahkan mereka. Pihak sekolah juga didapati tidak berupaya menguruskan latihan sukan dan jasmani serta menguruskan pembelajaran sekolah dengan berkesan. Ini menunjukkan kelemahan mereka. Inilah yang dikatakan KEPINCANGAN PENGURUSAN SEKOLAH yang kian jelas dan terbongkar.

Dengan ini, tindakan keras patut di ambil keatas pihak pengurusan sekolah. Dan pelajar-pelajar harus dibenarkan melapur diri keskuad hoki remaja negara dengan serta merta.

From darkness now we see the light.The boys are are moving in the right direction by putting priority to their studies.

Please ask all former students of BJSS,what the teachers do when the students sleep during class.(after morning and evening training)(TIDURLAH TAPI JANGAN BERDENGKUR)

When there is oppurtunity for exposure at higher level,they wont allowed,using all the rules available.(When appointed a position in a club team,all rules are thrown in the drain and the players from BJSS will be playing.

Its tough.BJSS is a total failure with the wrong map and people.

Malaysia had many great sportsmen before BJSS existed.

As once a great man said
"Education cause money,so is ignorance.

Hello Bro, if someone is called to attend the FIH coaching course by FIH itself, the credit should go to the individuals for being called for the course. It is beacuse of their hard work and performance in the preliminary course got them a seat for the next course. But there are few who just got a certificate only as they had no calibre the FIH did not invite them for higher course. But, when the ex-national coach attended the course, he could not satisfy the course conductors with the amount of jerseys and free gifts given as a complement to them as to enable him to get a seat for the high performance course. Now he wants to see that how these 3 can get into the course without his approval as he acts as if he is the head of the coaching committee. His medling with the MHF was unsuccessful, hence he has moved early to the World cup venue and with FIH officials to see that these 3 minus 1 does not successfully complete the FIH course. How ridiculous!!!. He does not want anyone to improve upon...other than his own clan, for reference see whom all he has suggested for the FIH indoor and outdoor courses (his supporters- who does not do any coaching).
His acts shoes that - he has started digging grave to burry Hockey in Malaysia.

good article, you should get ur facts right, Just imagine if ur son is one of the player, he decides to focus on his SPM, you should be proud. We should be happy to get tinking players, who could do well for country, unlike the present set on non tinking coaches.they too have a right to decide their future.If you are a failure that does not mean they should fail too.The coach decides to gain knowledge by coaching sapura. What is the fuss? He could impart knowledge to the players, who in turn cold be better players. I think sports school is on the right tracg, Congrats to its staff.

One of the hockey player from BJSS under the custody of schools adminstrative education programme of extra classes comes out to done the colours of national team. The other boys too wants to play, but they are forced to give a letter in writing as an excuse for studies. I appreciate the boys quest to play for the country. These kind of players are needed for the national team, rather than having players who are under the clutches of BJSS authorities. Two other players from BPSS too were seen attending the training.

Do you know why 2 boys left BJSS and joined some other school? It shows bad hand of BJSS coach. If BJSS coach was good and clean in his behaviour towards players, then perhaps the boy would not have left the school and joined the 2013 squad. The rest is history. Moral of the story - try to put your legs in the shoes you can.

Do you actually know WHY the two boys left?The 2013 coaches were trying to become fathers to the boys.Instead of advicing them they poisened the minds of these innocent boys with promises.The coaches think they can play god. Immagine someone took your son to a tournament and told him leave your father because he is not good.WOW what wre they tinking man.Lets see what wii happen to the boys after their form 5.YOU look at your shoes first.You are not fit enough to guide these innocence minds. you will SURELY spoli their future.

The 2 boys were harrassed by school authorities and as a coach, guardian, teacher, and the so called father... never even helped the boys inturn but they were mentally harassed. The two boys are happy that they are out of school, played in national league and have shown improvement. It is good that they got experience playing so many matches in the national league where they have improved considerably comparred to BJSS boys who were locked in the school. Under 2013 coaches they have shown better performance. If they have to become sportspersons they should be let to play, if not the tax payers money is being wasted.

Suprising to hear, a school can harass a pupil.Normaly when a teacher pinches a student or just say something offensive it will definately be out in the papers. Here harassment was not reported?Futheremore its a sportsschool, under the watchful eyes of the education ministary and other sports bodies.Question, DID MHF OR MSN INTERVENE? I dont think so.So who are you to decide(trying to be GOD). Hello tambi go and tell fairy tales to other people la.We all know what happen and there are things called PROCEDURE in every goverment department. Sports school staff are not like you guys does everything on wills and fancy, Imagine coaches with no level 3 coaching 2013?In that case the school where you studied, the teachers also no qualification la. Patut la you do all this things.Actually the tax payers money is wasted on unqualified people like you. So to all parents BEWARE of the 2013 coaches, the can spoll your children.

Suddenly, after landing at KLIA after finished the tournament in Myanmar, they instruct all the students to go back to school and sit for the real SPM exams about two days after! How about their preparation for SPM exam? Simply said, they all including parents being cheated! Thats why current form 5 student just to play safe to get the balance of their study and sports. Yes, they are sports school student. But everybody knows, in Malaysia sports will not go for long as what the Chipsmore biscuits got it's motto, 'Now you see, now you dont!!'
