The Olympic Council of Malaysia (OCM) has confirmed that the Lawn Tennis Association of Malaysia (LTAM) has withdrawn its men’s and women’s teams from the Indonesia Sea Games on Nov 11-22.
According to OCM honorary secretary Datuk Sieh Kok Chi, LTAM felt that its players did not meet regional standards.
Jawairiah Noordin and Si Yew Meng were given Category A status by OCM for the assignment
LTAM’s decision, if it is true, is quite dumbfounding as they spent loads of money to train junior elite players in Spain.
The association’s decision is a poor one...... The sport has not made upward progress for the last few years thanks to them..... Elections are near.....
