MWWF SUPPORTS 4 MORE YOUNG WATERSKI TRAINEES IN THEIR 10 YEAR PLAN

The Malaysian Waterski & Wakeboard Federation (MWWF) today announced four more young waterskiers have been inducted into their ambitious 10-year plan to make Malaysian world class skiers before 2020.

The four new young Malaysian trainees are Arianna Chow age 11, Nadeera Luqman Nor, age 9, Nazrin Luqman Nor, age 7 and Aiden Yoong Hanifah, age 7.

They have been training in the Putrajaya national waterski centre 3 days a week since January this year and will make their debut in their first ever waterski & wakeboard competition in the Malaysian National Championships end of this month.

The Malaysian Nationals is scheduled as part of the Ministry of Youth & Sports Malaysia's Water Sports Carnival from the 25 to 27 May 2012.

Arianna Chow who goes to school in the Alice Smith School in Kuala Lumpur is now in year 6 while Nadeera is from the SK Bandar Seri Putra and is presently in year 3 and is a good friend of Aaliyah. Both Nazrin and Aiden are class-mates in year 1 from SK Bandar Seri Putra.

The 10-year development plan launched by MWWF in January 2009 had already seen some results of the efforts put in by the MWWF through Aaliyah Yoong Hanifah, now age 9, who surprised the waterski world with a sensational gold medal in open women tricks in last year's SEA Games held in Palembang, Indonesia.

MWWF's Vice President, Phillipa Yoong said, "The fine performances in the 4 gold medals which our national waterski team brought back from last year's SEA Games have definitely resulted in increased interest from parents and we are getting enquiries almost on a weekly basis on how to start waterskiing from all over the country,"

"These four new trainees were selected from more than 20 young skiers who participate in their schools' co-curriculum programme with the MWWF at the Putrajaya National Waterski Training Centre at the Maritime Centre in Presint 5." she added.

RARE CHANCE FOR AALIYAH TO LEARN FROM WORLD CHAMPION MENTOR CLEMENTINE LUCINE

Malaysia's 8 year old child protege waterskier, Aaliyah Yoong Hanifah, has her chance of a lifetime to learn from multiple world champion Clementine Lucine who is currently in Putrajaya for her pre-season winter training ahead of two major events in March.

Clementine who hails from France also holds the women tricks world record of 10040 points to become the first woman trick skier over 10000 points as well as having been the IWWF Putrajaya World Cup winner in 2008.

She arrived in Malaysia last Friday with her team mates Pierre Ballon and Alexandre Poteau and started her intensive preparations the very next day. The French national team members shall train for 12 days in Putrajaya till the 7th of March before heading to the Moomba Master event in Melbourne and then to the IWWF World Cup in Perth the following week. The French squad are under the charge of their French national coach Marian Malaquin.

Aaliyah lost no time to ask to train together with Clementine as well as to sit in the boat while Clementine trains.

"I learn so much by sitting in the boat just watching Clem trains," said Aaliyah.

"I listen to what her coach points out to her and I also see how she execute all those tricks that I am presently doing plus all those tricks I shall be doing in the years to come." she added.

Clementine feels strongly that Aaliyah has the potential to reach the top of the world as she remarked that, "I do not see any reason why she cannot compete with the best in the world within another 5 years from now if she keeps up her current rate of improvement,"

"Her present standard is right on par with the world's best in her age group and she only needs to keep training as she is doing now and get into more international competitions in Europe and in the USA where the competition is stronger than in Asia."

Aaliyah is scheduled to next compete in the 2012 Asian Beach Games in Haiyang China in June as well as in the 2012 Asian Australasian Oceanian Championships in Chuncheon in Korea in August. In both these competitions Aaliyah will compete in the open women category and after that she is expected to make her debut in the IWWF World Junior Championship for U17 competitors end of 2012 in Melbourne.
