Sazali Samad files appeal on doping ban

It has been confirmed that Malaysian bodybuilder Sazali Samad has proposed an official appeal regarding his four-year suspension, which was given to him after he failed his out-of-competition doping test last September.
The 10-time Mr Universe admitted to taking stimulants before he took part in the Asia Bodybuilding and Physique Championship in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
Sazali’s wife, Hashrine Hashim had stated the pair filed a media statement as soon as the appeal was sent.
“Any questions regarding the issue can be answered by Sazali’s lawyer or the PBBM,” Hashrine told Utusan.
Hashrine denied any requests to elaborate the appeal, whether was it to shorten the suspension or otherwise. She also did not give a reason to why the appeal was sent two days before the due date.

Faizal Saari to play abroad during suspension

The Terengganu Hockey Association (THA) has gave national striker Faizal Saari the green light to play in the foreign leagues while waiting for his suspension to end.
The 25 year-old was given a six-month suspension by the Malaysian Hockey Confederation (MHC) after he failed to show up for any of the training sessions since last October 2.
President of THA, Datuk Wan Ahmad Nizam Wan Abdul Hamid claimed that the association has no restrictions on his desire to play in any overseas league and stated that the action could also benefit the Teregganu team.
“If Faizal’s chances are better overseas, we have no problem with that and THA will fully support him for the sake of the team and the future of the player,” Wan Ahmad Nizam told Bernama.
Faizal has currently set eyes of heading to either Germany, Oman or Hong Kong.

There's no stopping Syazwan from claiming gold

KUALA LUMPUR: High jumper Mohd Syazwan Ahmad is one tough cookie.

Not even an ankle injury could stop him from taking the gold medal in the 10th South-East Asian (SEA) Youth Athletics Championships at the National Sports Council (NSC) ground in Bukit Jalil on Saturday.

The 17-year-old Syazwan cleared 2.06m to retain the gold medal which he won in Myanmar last year.

The win has enabled the Kuala Lumpur-born athlete to qualify for both the Asean Schools Athletics Championships in Brunei in November and the World Youth Championships in Cali, Colombia from July 15-19. The qualifying mark for both the events are 2.06m.

The Form Five student of Bukit Jalil Sports School (BJSS), however, was far from satisfied with his efforts.

He had asked for the bar to be raised to 2.11m as he wanted to better his personal best of 2.10m, which he did at the Selangor Open last year.

But Syazwan failed in all three attempts.

"I could have improved on my personal best if not for the ankle injury, which I suffered two weeks ago during training. I tried hard but just couldn't do it," said Syazwan.

The Malaysian contingent did well to win five golds, eight silvers and three bronzes on the first day of the Under-17 meet.

Asnawi Hashim won the boys' 100m final in 11.04, finishing ahead of Indonesian sprinters Ogas Agfreansa (11.06) and Burhan Wardhani (11.11).

The Form Five Student of Tunku Mahkota Ismail Sports School (SSTMI) was delighted to win the gold but disappointed at failing to improve on his personal best of 10.98, which he did at the Terengganu Open last month.

"I made good progress because last year I could only manage the bronze in the event in Myanmar. I'll go all out tomorrow to bag the double in the 200m as well," said the Malacca-born, who has a personal best of 22.10.

Asnawi also bagged a silver in the boys' 4x400m relay in 3:21.40.

Malaysia's other gold medallist were Asif Rahman Jiyaudden (boys' 800m in 1:57.37); Intan Sarah Zulgafli (girls' 100m hurdles in 14.87); and Nor Amy Lieyna Ismail (girls' long jump event 5.13m).

Thailand topped the first-day medal haul with six golds, one silver and three bronzes
