  • Archer Khambeswaran Shoots Straight for the Record
    Archer Khambeswaran shoots straight for the record BY AFTAR SINGH The Star Record breakers Khambeswaran and Farah Amalina (right) pose for a photo after winning their events in Sukma at Unimas ground. - Bernama KUCHING: Archer M.

He shot 360 points to erase the previous mark by one point. The old record of 359 was set by Lang Hong Keong at the Asian Grand Prix in Bangkok in 2008. Khambeswaran also bettered the Sukma record of 356 set by Penang’s Zulfadhli Ruslan in Pahang in 2012. Sabah’s Wong Co Wan took the silver with 359 points while homester Chio Chung Yin bagged the bronze with a 357 total. Khambeswaran was not the only national record breaker in Monday’s competition. Kedah’s Farah Amalina Azharroke accumulated 350 points to set a new mark in the women’s 30m recurve. The 21-year-old improved the national record by one point, erasing the mark of 349 set by Nurul Shafiqah Hashim in the third National Circuit in Lumut in 2012.

  • Silat Martial Ritual Initiation in Brunei Darussalam
    Southeast Asia: A Multidisciplinary Journal, Vol 14, 2014, pp 1–13 © FASS, UBD Silat martial ritual initiation in Brunei Darussalam Gabriel Facal Institut de recherches Asiatiques (Aix-Marseille Université) Abstract Almost no research has been done on the silat martial ritual initiations developed in Brunei even though silat continues to be a main cultural marker of the sultanate and it is recurrent in legendary narratives as well as in contemporary local film productions. For Bruneian people, the image of silat is also conveyed by the multitude of Malaysian and Indonesian movies they can watch. Therefore the upheavals that silat has endured since the inception of the sport’s federation in the 1980’s have challenged the possibility of local silat groups keeping alive their practice, structure and organization. These evolutions also reflect certain conflicts in the Bruneian cultural policy, as the government seeks to promote a traditional cultural heritage while at the same time transforming its content to match an alternative ideological discourse. Introduction Martial ritual initiations have spread widely across the so-called Malay world (for debate about this notion, see Barnard, 2004), and have been extensively documented. For example, Maryono (2002) describes pencak and silat in Indonesia, De Grave (2001) deals with pencak in Java, Facal (2012) focuses on penceu in Banten, Wilson (2002) analyzes penca in West Java, and Farrer (2012) considers silat in Malaysia. However, there has been less coverage of the situation in Brunei. This discrepancy can be explained by the secrecy surrounding the transmission and integration of the practice in a wide and complex set of transmission frames, based on an authority structure which refers to local cosmology and religious values.

  • STATE of PLAY: BALTIMORE STUDY FOCUS AREA: EAST BALTIMORE Specifically, a Roughly Two-Square-Mile Area of East Baltimore
    ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS TABLE OF CONTENTS WELCOME 1 SCOREBOARD 2 THE 8 PLAYS 7 CALL FOR LEADERSHIP 24 GAME CHANGER 26 The Children & Youth Fund IDEAS 28 APPENDICES 30 ENDNOTES 34 The Aspen Institute thanks Under Armour for its support of this report and Project Play: Baltimore THE VISION A Baltimore in which all children have the opportunity to be active through sports WELCOME Baltimore has a rich history of developing its children and communities through sports, from the early days of Babe Ruth, to the proliferation of recreation centers in the 1960s and ’70s, to the rise of the most decorated Olympian in history, Michael Phelps. Sports are baked into the DNA of this unique city. The Aspen Institute aims to help Baltimore tell its best sports story yet. Project Play: Baltimore, our first model community effort, will identify and facilitate opportunities for leaders to grow the quality and quantity of youth sport opportunities. Our specific focus is on a two-square-mile area of East Baltimore (see map on page 4), where Under Armour helped renovate a recreation center in 2016 and asked us to assist stakeholders throughout the area – so lessons can be learned and shared with other communities around the city and the country. This report offers an assessment of the current state of play for kids and sports in the area. Our work is anchored in the notion that all stakeholders will benefit if all youth are provided access to a quality sport experience. We know this from the body of research that has emerged over the past decade establishing the myriad benefits of physical activity.

Malaysian Journal of Movement, Health & Exercise, 9(1), 89-101. https://doi.org/10.15282/mohe.v9i1.404 Link to this article: https://doi.org/10.15282/mohe.v9i1.404 Abstract This is an epidemiological study on injuries and illnesses among Sabah SUKMA athletes in 2018. This study was done retrospectively using a standardized data registry. Incidence of injuries and illnesses were 16.27 and 16.74 per 100 athletes, respectively. Combat sports showed the highest incidence of injuries (45%), mainly involving the head and neck region. Common injuries included muscle strains and ligament sprains. The concussion rate was 1.85 per 100 full contact athletes. Time loss percentage was 1.4%. There were no reports on any severe head injuries or severe concussions. This could be due to the strict implementation of protective gear during competitions. The concussion rate was lower compared to many other international studies. Muscle strains was seen more in high speed sprinting and kicking athletes. The most significant illness affecting Sabahan athletes was an isolated case of mumps. However, contact tracing was activated immediately and there were no reported Mumps outbreaks among Sabahan athletes.
