Jumaat, 12 September 2008 | Edisi Selangor & KL | Nazrol Jamaludin
Sirkit Remaja Tenpin Boling SportExcel tajaan bersama SportExcel, Milo, Majlis Sukan Negara (MSN) dan Kongres Tenpin Boling Malaysia (MTBC) telah bermula sejak 1994 lagi dan sejak itu, seorang demi seorang bintang sukan boling dilahirkan seperti Shalin Zulkifli, Zulmazran Zulkifli, Esther Cheah, Adrian Ang dan lain-lain pernah mengambil bahagian dalam sirkuit ini.
Penyelaras pertandingan, Tay Li Neo menjelaskan, walaupun terdapat sedikit penurunan daripada jumlah peserta pada tahun ini, secara keseluruhannya penganjuran kejohanan tahun ini dilihat berjaya dan menunjukkan peningkatan.
“Secara keseluruhannya, purata jatuhan pin yang dikumpul menunjukkan peningkatan berbanding tahun lalu, ini menunjukkan peserta-peserta yang menyertai siri ini mempunyai potensi yang baik.
“Selain itu, penganjuran kategori bawah 12 tahun yang pertama kali diadakan juga mencapai matlamat berdasarkan persembahan yang ditunjukkan peserta,” katanya.
Menurutnya, kejayaan sirkit ini juga menunjukkan program pembangunan yang dijalankan di setiap negeri juga berjalan dengan sangat baik.
“Program pembangunan yang dijalankan di setiap negeri amat baik berdasarkan dengan persembahan pemain-pemain dan ini secara tidak langsung menjadikan Malaysia tidak ketandusan pemain-pemain berbakat di dalam sukan boling.
“Ada juga pemain dari negara luar menyatakan di mana program pembangunan sukan boling di Malaysia merupakan antara yang terbaik di dunia,” katanya.
Selain itu, Tay Li Neo juga menjelaskan dengan adanya pertandingan ini, pemain-pemain di peringkat negeri mempunyai satu pertandingan yang tetap untuk mereka bertanding.
“Wakil dari MTBC dan MSN juga akan memantau pemain-pemain untuk dinilai dan menjalani ujian pemilihan untuk pasukan remaja kebangsaan,” katanya.
Secara keseluruhannya, terdapat 11 sirkit termasuk sirkuit Grand Prix Finals yang dipertandingkan sepanjang tahun di mana lapan sirkuit di Semenanjung Malaysia, dua sirkit di Sabah dan Sarawak dan satu sirkuit Grand Prix.
Sirkit Grand Prix adalah di mana pemain-pemain terbaik daripada Semenanjung dan Sabah dan Sarawak berkumpul untuk menentukan juara keseluruhan di dalam kategori masing-masing.

Cheryl showing her potential
PETALING JAYA: Kuala Lumpur's Cheryl Cheong again showed her potential to become a top bowler in the country by nailing another top junior title on Saturday.
The Form Five student of the Bukit Jalil Sports School (BJSS) emerged as the girls' Open champion in the SportExcel-NSC-Milo National Grand Prix Finals at the Kuantan Mega Lanes.
She also stole the show in Sukma (Malaysia Games) in Kuala Terengganu last June, pulling the rug from under the fancied bowlers to win the Masters gold medal.
On Saturday, the 17-year-old Cheryl recovered from a poor first game to beat Pahang's Farah Izzazaya 332-322 (136-196, 170-152) in the final.
She certainly saved the best for the Finals of the 10-leg circuit after crashing out in the elimination rounds in Malacca, Kuala Lumpur, Seremban and Johor.
The former national youth bowler, who had been bowling for nine years, was all smiles.
“I was very nervous in the final against Farah and managed only to score 136 pins in the first game. But I did not give up,” said Cheryl, who came into the tournament with a target of a top four finish.
“With the guidance from my coach and support from my friends, I did well to connect several strikes and also picked up my spares.”
With her consistent performances thus far, Cheryl is likely to get a call-up to re-join the national youth squad.
In the boys’ Open, Perak’s Mohd Amsyar Zakaria landed his first junior title – beating Mohd Hanif Mohd Bakri of Pahang 372-317 in the final.
