Packed programme for junior shuttlers
This Article is taken from the Star Metro section of November 7, 2011.
JUNIOR shuttlers from the Hooi Yee Sport training camp will be up against a hectic competition schedule featuring several junior tournaments starting this month.
In the pre-season exercise — a build up to face the challenges next year — former national women’s doubles and mixed doubles shuttler Chor Hooi Yee was hopeful that her charges would overcome the demanding pace and prove themselves as emerging talents in their respective age-groups.
The trainees have been going through two hours of physical training on weekdays and this was increased to four hours on weekends.
“They are aware that they will need to be in good physical condition to go the full distance.
Good job: Chor (right) having a friendly chat with one of her trainees after a competition.
“We have been putting them through conditioning training to prepare them to face gruelling matches, especially towards the end of a meet. They will need to be ready for it,” said Hooi Yee.
The team, comprising 22 players aged from 10 to 16 are now taking part in the Kota Star Badminton Association junior meet in Alor Star.
The five promising players leading the pack are Koh Sian Hern (boys’ Under-10); the boys’ Under-12 trio of Chew Lok Kin, Chew Lok Hong and Ng Chen Wai; and Tai Jing Ying (girls’ Under-14).
Hooi Yee admitted her charges would be facing stiffer contests from the stronger northern contenders.
“In their previous outing at another tournament in Kuala Lumpur, the trainees have done well by advancing to the semi-finals and finals.
“They only failed to clear the tougher rounds as they faced more superior state representatives.
“It will be another interesting journey for them over the year-end school break.
“They are also teaming up with partners of similar playing ability from other states to increase their chances of winning.
“We are offering attractive incentive to spur them to rise to the challenge. The outstanding performers will be receiving equipment sponsorships as a boost for them to reach greater heights,” she added.
Currently, they have almost 100 trainees going through the paces under four trainers at the private training outfit.
They will return to provide the excitement at the third edition of Hooi Yee Sport Junior Badminton Championships at their training centre based at Sports Affairs’ 15-court badminton hall in Taman Segar Perdana, Cheras from Nov 18-20.
And the hosts are expecting more than 300 competitors to take part in the 12 categories of the three-day meet.
The boys will compete in both singles and doubles in four age-groups — Under-10, Under-12, Under-14 and Under-16 — while the four sections for the girls are Under-10 singles, Under-13 singles, Under-13 doubles and Under-16 singles.
“The number of entries is nothing to shout about at the moment.
“As usual, we are expecting a last minute rush to register before the closing date (Nov 11).
“We are confident of reaching our target in attracting another huge turnout,” said Hooi Yee.
In addition, they will also join the fray in three other tournaments in the Klang Valley before heading down south to Segamat, Johor over the year-end school break starting from mid-Nov.

Koh, Ong win two titles

IN THE absence of the superior competitors, it was a chance for unheralded junior shuttlers to showcase their potential at the Kuala Lumpur Veteran Badminton Association-Axel Open Championships at the Kuala Lumpur Badminton Association hall in Cheras recently.
Tournament official P. Kantharoopan said majority of the top young trainees under the Kuala Lumpur and Selangor training programmes opted to skip the competition because of the hectic competition calendar at the state and national levels.
“The play was more than two hours behind schedule starting from the quarter-finals on the final day. We were forced to use six of the 10 courts because of the leaking roof after the afternoon down pour. But, the stadium was filled with competitors as well as spectators over the two-day meet. It took a bit of effort to get the energetic children to follow the instructions,” he added.

Untroubled victory: The men’s 30 to 40 years doubles winners Sean Wan (left) and Kong Chee Seng anticipating a return to subdue their opponents in the final.
In the boys’ section, Koh Sian Hern and Ong Jing Ning scored a double bagging both the singles and doubles in the Under-10 and Under-12 respectively.
The boys’ Under-18 singles provided a tight finale with Muhammad Shahireen subduing K. Arvind by a solitary point - winning 30-29 victory.
Meanwhile, it was a double blow for Kuala Lumpur trainee Tan Sueh Cheng when the 15-year-old stepped up to feature in the girls’ Under-18 final.
Tan went down 24-30 to Teh Kai Wen in the singles. The second blow came in the doubles when she and partner Hoo Soo Yoong suffered an agonising 29-30 defeat at the hands of Naraqilah Md Rais-Nurun Najihah.
The two-day meet drew 700 shuttlers competing in 17 categories including three separate doubles contests in the men’s veteran.
Winning combination: The partnership of Seddrik Joker and Ameer Amri emerged as the boys Under-15 champions.
In contrast, the veteran categories failed to attract the desired entries with the largest turnout of only 12 pairs in the 41- 50 category.
Kantharoopan, a former national singles shuttler, said they reduced the doubles contests for the recreational veteran players from six to three categories due to lack of entries.
“Initially, we planned to host events with five years interval in between starting from 30 years. But, the response was not that impressive,” he added.
The two other sections were 30 to 40 years and 51 to 60 years.
The 1992 Thomas Cup’s victorious side team manager Datuk Punch Gunalan and the winning team captain Razif Sidek also turned up in a show of support at the prize presentation ceremony.

PINT-sized junior shuttler Ong Wei Jian has been finding it hard to gain weight and beef up physically.
Despite having a big appetite during his regular meals, former national mixed and women’s doubles shuttler Chor Hooi Yee said the young talent has not put on weight.
“He showed tremendous progress last year. Although he had the opportunity to take part in the junior tournaments at national level this year, he has remained stagnant without showing outstanding improvement this year.
“We are concerned about his slow development. The year-end school holiday is a good period for him to put in the extra effort and attempt to make up for lost ground. He has a lot of catching up to do in becoming a more accomplished player,” she added.
Up and coming: Wei Jian in focus during training.
But, the 12-year-old from Kedah has not lost his hunger to challenge for honours at the national junior level.
Besides featuring in several junior tournaments over the recent school break, Wei Jian is also going through the paces four hours daily for six days a week under the care of Hooi Yee at her training centre in Cheras.
Wei Jian hopes he will achieve his aim in bringing his game to another level by increasing the frequency and intensity in training over the period.
“I have been coping with the training programme drawn up for me. The strenuous physical sessions have always been tough.
“Recently, I have been using a heavier racquet to attain more forceful execution of attacking strokes,” said Wei Jian, adding that it had always been enjoyable to spend his holidays with the training buddies at the centre.
It was a sweet outing for Wei Jian when he went on to bag a double, winning both the boys’ Under-12 singles and doubles for the second consecutive year at the Hooi Yee Sport Junior Badminton Championships recently.
After an easy victory over his partner Leong Wei Lun in the singles, Wei Jian-Wei Lun were forced to slog and came from a game down before securing the victory.
Hooi Yee admitted that Wei Jian needed to improve on his strength to threaten his opponents with better delivery of shots.
“He has been struggling to score the winners when his opponents pressure him with quality returns. He will need to overcome the difficulty when he is under pressure,” she said.
After showing promise as an emerging talent in age-group meets at state level, Wei Jian made his debut to feature at national junior competitions this year.
Although he was an early casualty, crashing out in the early round at the Malaysian Schools Sports Council (MSSM) tournament, Wei Jian paired up with Lee Zii Jia to emerge as one of the top boys’ Under-12 combinations at the National Junior Circuit.
Wei Jian said he was surprised that they went all the way to end their season on a winning note securing the top position at the Grand Prix finals.
Earlier, the duo were the champions and runners-up of the Zone A series at the first and second legs respectively while Wei Jian failed to clear the semi-finals at the top half of the draw on both occasions.

Youngster Lishwan overcomes Vi Hen to lift his maiden Under-15 title

YOUNGSTER M. Lishwan survived a lengthy encounter before securing his maiden junior title in the boys’ Under-15 singles during the Hooi Yee Sport Junior Badminton Championships at the Sports Affairs’ 15-court badminton in Taman Segar Perdana, Cheras on Tuesday.
After winning the first game 21-19, Lishwan of SMK Bukit Jalil allowed Tan Vi Hen to force the decider when he dropped the following game 15-21.
The 14-year-old Lishwan admitted he had trouble coping with his opponent’s attacking in the second game.
“I was not as sharp in the second game because I lost focus. But, I bounced back strongly in the third game and took a comfortable five-point lead (11-6) as we went into the interval. He (Vi Hen) put up a good fight and tried to narrow the deficit from there. But, I knew that I was in control of the match,” he said.
Second best: Lishwan (left) and his partner Yong Han Xian finishing as the runners-up in the boys’ Under-15 doubles.
Coming into the competition, Lishwan had featured in two other tournaments and was a finalist in the boys’ Under-14 singles section in the previous meet.
“I have signed up for another six tournaments hosted around the Klang Valley during the school holiday. It feels good to secure a victory in a junior tournament over the year-end school break.
“I hope that I will continue to improve on my performance and bag several more titles along the way,” he said.
Meanwhile, Ong Wei Jian scored another double in the boys’ Under-12 category for the second consecutive year.
Following an effortless 21-12, 21-10 win over his doubles partner Leong Wei Lun in the singles, the duo faced a stiff test and came from a game down before coming through in winning the doubles title.
The combination of Najmi Kamarudin-Izzudin Muzli proved themselves as worthy finalists and got off to an explosive start to stun the favourites by winning the opening game 22-20.
However, Wei Jian-Wei Lun lived up to their billing as the favourites and wrapped up the following two games 21-18, 21-19 for a hard-earned victory.
Go for it: The girls’ Under-13 doubles losing finalists Samantha Chin (front) retrieving a shot while her partner Lim Jee Lynn, who won the girls’ Under-13 singles, looks on.
The 12-year-old Wei Jian from Kedah also won both titles in the similar styles after having to fend off strong challenge in the doubles last year.
In addition, the duo of Yew Chen Sen and Saw Wei Jian also captured both the singles and doubles in boys’ Under-10 and Under-18 categories respectively.
Former national women’s and mixed doubles shuttler Chor Hooi Yee was impressed with the youngsters who showed a higher level of competitiveness compared to last year’s tournament.
The recent two-day tournament drew 300 junior entries in various age-groups. For the boys, the four categories were Under-10, Under-12, Under-15 and Under-18 while the girls competed in the Under-10, Under-13 and Under-16 contests.
Besides badminton equipment, the winners also shared a total cash reward of more than RM3,000.

YOUNGSTER M. Lishwan survived a lengthy encounter before securing his maiden junior title in the boys’ Under-15 singles during the Hooi Yee Sport Junior Badminton Championships at the Sports Affairs’ 15-court badminton in Taman Segar Perdana, Cheras on Tuesday.
After winning the first game 21-19, Lishwan of SMK Bukit Jalil allowed Tan Vi Hen to force the decider when he dropped the following game 15-21.
The 14-year-old Lishwan admitted he had trouble coping with his opponent’s attacking in the second game.
“I was not as sharp in the second game because I lost focus. But, I bounced back strongly in the third game and took a comfortable five-point lead (11-6) as we went into the interval. He (Vi Hen) put up a good fight and tried to narrow the deficit from there. But, I knew that I was in control of the match,” he said.
Second best: Lishwan (left) and his partner Yong Han Xian finishing as the runners-up in the boys’ Under-15 doubles.Coming into the competition, Lishwan had featured in two other tournaments and was a finalist in the boys’ Under-14 singles section in the previous meet.
“I have signed up for another six tournaments hosted around the Klang Valley during the school holiday. It feels good to secure a victory in a junior tournament over the year-end school break.
“I hope that I will continue to improve on my performance and bag several more titles along the way,” he said.
Meanwhile, Ong Wei Jian scored another double in the boys’ Under-12 category for the second consecutive year.
Following an effortless 21-12, 21-10 win over his doubles partner Leong Wei Lun in the singles, the duo faced a stiff test and came from a game down before coming through in winning the doubles title.
The combination of Najmi Kamarudin-Izzudin Muzli proved themselves as worthy finalists and got off to an explosive start to stun the favourites by winning the opening game 22-20.
However, Wei Jian-Wei Lun lived up to their billing as the favourites and wrapped up the following two games 21-18, 21-19 for a hard-earned victory.

Former national women’s and mixed doubles shuttler Chor Hooi Yee was impressed with the youngsters who showed a higher level of competitiveness compared to last year’s tournament.
