When I was scheduled to be back, one thing that always stuck in my mind is how am I gonna get into the local football scene.
Luckily when I was with QiLin FC, we did went to Malaysia for tourneys and this does help a lot. I get to know the wonderful guys at Little League Malaysia especially Andy and Pete. Even before I head back Andy has contacted me for a meeting and chat about a new project. I think this project will be great..not just for the expats community in KL but also our very own local boys. Once it kick off, I will reveal more.
Although nothing is confirm yet, its kinda unbelievable that Andy approach me to head up this project. Certainly my experience back in Shanghai helps. We have already talk to Bojan Hodak, ex Little League, My Team FC head coach, and he will be on board as well. There are a lot of useful pointers from him as he is a well known figure in the football scene here. We also talked to V. Saravanan, ex national, Perak and currently MyTeam FC top striker. He will also form part of the crew for this exciting project. Even Chan Wing Hoong, ex national, Perak and currently Perlis defender contacted me wanting to be involve. We'll talk more about the project once it beginning to take pace.
Today I was feature in The Star video section done by Chow. Well hopefully this video can be use to promote the new project. It can be a big plus as I have mention before, I am not certified in any FAM coaching badges. Reason No 1 is I was away in Shanghai for the past 7 years thus limiting my chances on getting in any of the courses.

Mr Coach,
ReplyDeleteSend your CV to FAM general secretary and inform him about the problem in the process. FAM should realize more people apply for it, it will be more beneficial to our football scene. And if they miss out someone who having outstanding criteria, something wrong with them.
