School Sports.

Heads-up youngster!
Skipping class for sports is a terrible decision.
Don't even think of becoming a Jock.
You are actually a scrap goat of the school.
A sacrifice made to ensure other student excel in their education.
You made your school proud with gold medals.
but in the end of the day,
You are nothing but a faded memory.

Linsanity!

There's no point for any student in Malaysia to seriously commit themselves for school Sport.
Athletic scholarships doesn't exist here but are common in the United States for no apparent reason.
Unless you are really talented and worthy enough to represent yourself for Malaysia at SEA, Olympic, FiFA dll than why not. Don't push your luck too much,  athlete over 18 are made up  from less than 0.1% of  fresh school leaver.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics ,USA, there are 9,380 professional athletes you have a 0.00565% chance of becoming a professional athlete.
(I cant find Malaysia's statistic. But im pretty sure the amount it is less than 2000. Malaysian total citizen, 30 000 000. Chances of being a professional athlete in Malaysia, 0.00067%)
World class athlete? less then 1% of total amount of professional athlete in the world

We are living in a society where education is more important than sports&CoQ.


Does your employer look at your sports resume?
Nope.It will only make your CV look longer, a clever deception to hid your pointer.
They'll scan trough your CV and ask you a bunch of academic related stuff, what you learn, what did you do, what can you apply in the working industry, your martial status and other things.
In the end, they will hire someone with job experience or better pointer& soft skills.
Except if you're applying for fitness trainer, referee, coach or sports teacher.

 

We've been forced or fail. 

Does the university take your sports qualification into consideration when you apply for a place there?
IPTA: 
Yes, BUT! there's no point excelling in sports when your academic result is so fuck up.
You cant even get a decent course with 9B SPM result & wakil Negeri in bola tampar.
Might end up doing some shitty course and end up being an unemployed graduate.
But it's a diffrent story for those with 10A & kawat wakil rumah sukan. You can pursue your dream or even get a scholarship.
In fact,your teacher would even make their own program to ensure every student has a decent CoQ transcript.
Like :Larian 5km, reward: Sijil penyertaan Marathon 5km peringkat SMK ABC.
Less effort but great reward! :O

IPTS:
Doesnt matter. As long as you have the money, you can enroll into any course you want.
Even those from Sastera course can do Medicine at any 3rd grade university overseas.

Tertiary Education (Masters, PhD):
All they care is your academic qualification or job experience.Sports? LOL

 

They exist but they'll destroy your future.

Think before you commit yourself.
The only thing that you worth is your knowledge.

p/s: Most athlete retire at 28 and die young.
