SHAH ALAM — Malaysia Athletics (MA) is set to unveil its new national coaching team “soon”, with appointments currently awaiting final approval from the National Sports Council (NSC).

The governing body’s general manager Nurhayati Karim confirmed the coaching roster – covering sprints, throws and jumps – has entered its “last phase” of selection. 

“We have sent all information to the NSC,” she told reporters today, Bernama reported. “We are now waiting for the feedback and we should have an answer soon.”

The reshuffle follows the departure of sprint coach Mohd Poad Md Kassim, whose contract expired last December.

In a separate development, MA announced Germany’s elite sprint squad will conduct a four-week training camp in Malaysia ahead of May’s World Athletics Relays in Guangzhou.

The 47-strong delegation, arriving on Thursday, includes Olympic bronze medallists Rebekka Haase, Lisa Mayer and Alexandra Burghardt from Germany’s 4x100m team.

“This training camp is a milestone,” said coordinator Joerg Teichmann, highlighting the “trust and shared values” between both nations’ athletics programmes. — April 8, 2025
