SEPAK TAKRAW REPORT 1979
Teacher-in-charge : Mr. Ibrahim B. Hj. Mohamat
Teams captains : Zulkiflee Tainy (Secondary)
Aziz Osman (Lower Secondary)
This year 50 pupils joined

our Sepak Takraw Club. As
there were so many pupils,
we had a tough job to coach
and train them in this game.
We also had an equally
difficult time to select players
to represent the school. In
spite of our difficulties, we
still managed to find time to
train them three hours
regularly every Saturday.
In March, 12 pupils were

selected to represent the
school in the senior section
Upper Secondary Division while another 12 pupils
represented the junior
section.
Our senior team and

junior team participated in
the 1979 South Zone Sepak
Takraw Tournament. Our
Junior Team came in 4th in
the overall position.
In spite of the set-back and

difficulties we encountered,
we still hope to train harder
and to fare better in future.
Members of the Sepak
Takraw Club have
maintained their interest and
are showing significant
improvement in their
Lower Secondary Division practices.
