  • At what age did you start playing sports? Tell us about this time or moment in your life.

    I started playing football at the age of 6. My late father was an official with the Football Association of Selangor (FAS) from the late 70s to 80s. As he was involved with football for a long time, I often followed him to many games with FAS. Among the great players/teams that FAS have played in the past were Pelé (New York Cosmos), Maradona (Boca Juniors), Glenn Hoddle/ Ricardo Villa/ Garth Brooks (Tottenham Hotspurs), Kevin Keegan, and many more Asian stars, including Malaysia's own legend - Mokthar Dahari. Being exposed to such talented players at such a young age, this made me fall in love with the game, and I have never stopped playing till today at the age of 56 years old.
  • What are your favourite sports: those that you practice at a high level, a simple hobby, and a sport that you'd still like to discover?

    I have always been active in sports since my school days. Have played Hockey and Football at a competitive level. More to football - played in Elite leagues both here and in Singapore.
    I am also a certified Advanced Open Water Scuba Water diver from PADI. Used to dive actively from 2003 to 2008. Plan to pursue it again to upgrade my license to a Dive Master.
    I also actively ride superbikes till now and often join groups for convoy rides to cross-border rides to Thailand when time permits.
  • What gives you the motivation and passion to pursue your sport?

    I am highly passionate about football as I just love the game and can't imagine being idle and not playing the game at least once a week, even at this age... The other driving factor that motivates me is when I develop young kids or even adults to learn and be better at the game - that achievement is priceless to me, and it's a good feel.
  • Do you have a sporting achievement that you're particularly proud of?

    I have many sweet moments in my life, but the most memorable that I can recall was back in 93/94 when I played for my team in the Singapore Business House League. Being underdogs and playing against a more seasoned team in the National Stadium of Singapore. My team actually beat them narrowly to win the cup final, and that was a super unforgettable moment for me.
  • How have your achievements and challenges made you a better sportsperson?

    Yes, over the years and with my recent certification in football coaching, I have overcome many challenges, like teaching kids/adults who are new to football. I have gained a lot of patience and managed to brush this aside to focus on teaching my trainees the correct way of playing football. Back in my time, I did not have the luxury of being taught how to play football by my coaches - it's either you pick it up or you go.
    The personal training that I conduct daily allows me to touch/kick the ball, and this improves my touches and alertness overall.
  • If you had to go for a jog with a famous athlete, who would you choose? And what questions would you ask them?

    IF given a chance to jog with a famous athlete, it would be no other than Zinedine Zidane, as I always idolised his way of playing. And I would definitely pop the question: "How do you remain so cool and composed even during high-intensity matches?"
  • How do you help people stay motivated?

    It's simple - I keep telling them, " You can only be good with practice - no shortcuts". I often relay how Cristiano Ronaldo picked up the game from being poor to where he is now through simple hard work - NO SHORTCUTS. When I train my trainees, the mistakes they make are often corrected instantly with some repeated demos till they get it. For kids at the grassroots level, it's always important to make football fun for them, else they might be drawn away from the game if drills become too hard for them.
  • What makes you a Superprof in sports?

    My teaching methods in applying different strokes for different folks is what I practice. There is no one-size-fits-all in teaching football to youth/adults.
    Some may have a better understanding and ball sense, hence they can pick up fast and move on. Some may not, and be stagnant - this is where adaptability and patience as a mentor coach come in to educate the trainee, and this gives me a good feel.
