Ananthan said 18 players &#8211; nine boys and nine girls &#8211; from the school have been selected to represent Kuala Langat in the Selangor Schools Sports Council (MSSS) hockey championships at the Pandamaran Hockey Stadium in Klang from May 3-7.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a big achievement for the school. Most of the players come from a poor background but we have managed to get them interested in hockey. The school\u2019s headmaster (G. Selvarajoo) has been very supportive of the hockey training programme,\u2019\u2019 said Ananthan.<\/p>\n<p>Ananthan, who has been heading the training programme for the past six years, has two capable assistants in N. Ramasamy and M. Kumaresan.<\/p>\n<p>Although training sessions are held twice a week, the sessions are more during the competition season.<\/p>\n<p>For this year\u2019s competition, SJK(T) Pulau Carey Barat started training in January. But the training sessions are held at an open field.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are not in a position to train on turf. The nearest turf is in Klang and we have to look for transport. It is too costly and something beyond the school\u2019s means. But the pupils\u2019 enthusiasm and commitment has motivated us in making the hockey programme a success,\u2019\u2019 said Ananthan.<\/p>\n<p>SJK (T) Pulau Carey Barat is also the feeder school to SMK Pulau Carey who dominated the Under-18 age group in the MSSDKL hockey championships.<\/p>\n<p>SMK Pulau Carey was the girls\u2019 Under-18 champion and third in the boys\u2019 category in the MSSDKL championship this year.<\/p>\n<p>Ananthan said they would continue their weekly training sessions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will focus on the Year Five and Year Four pupils. We want to continue our winning ways in the championship. We encourage the pupils to be involved in healthy activities,\u2019\u2019 said Ananthan.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>from: <a href=\"http:\/\/thestar.com.my\/metro\/story.asp?file=\/2010\/4\/30\/central\/6144311&amp;sec=central\">the star<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a good achievement considering their location, lack of facilities, and also the background of the students.
