Meja Gusti Lengan Solid Gym Tepati WAF Rules

Pegawai-pegawai teknikel PSLNS sedang melakukan kerja pengukuran meja gusti lengan

Persatuan Sukan Lengan Negeri Selangor (PSLNS) telah mengambil langkah proaktif bagi memastikan pihak-pihak yang ingin menganjurkan pertandingan gusti lengan mengikuti piawaian atau standard yang telah ditetapkan oleh pihak Persekutuan Sukan Lengan Dunia atau World Armsport Federation (WAF) dengan membuat pemeriksaan ke atas peralatan yang dimilki oleh pihak yang menganjurkan pertandingan gusti lengan..Salah satu peralatan yang penting dalam mengendalikan acara gusti lengan ialah meja gusti lengan.

Permerhatian pihak PSLNS ke atas beberapa pertandingan yang dijalankan oleh pihak tertentu mendapati beberapa pertandingan yang diadakan langsung tidak mengikuti peraturan yang telah ditetapkan terutama dari segi penggunaan meja gusti lengan di mana ada dari mereka hanya menggunakan meja biasa atau meja banquet. Ini sama sekali menyalahi peraturan yang ditetapkan dan dikhuatiri boleh mendatang kecederaan kepada pemain. Begitu juga ada sesetengah pihak yang menggunakan meja gusti lengan namun didapati tidak menepati piawaian dari segi ukuran yang ditetapkan oleh WAF.

Lanjutan daripada itu, pihak PSLNS pada 23 Oktober 2011 yang lalu telah membuat pemeriksaan ke atas dua buah meja milik Solid Gym bagi memastikan samada meja berkenaan menepati piawaian WAF atau tidak. Setelah melakukan pengukuran keatas dua meja berkenaan, pihak PSLNS dengan ini mengesahkan bahawa kedua-dua meja gusti lengan milik Solid Gym telah menepati piawaian yang telah ditetapkan oleh pihak WAF.

Meja Gusti Lengan Mengikut standard WAF

Salam 1Malaysia.

Nampaknya kebelakangan ini isu tentang ukuran sebenar meja gusti lengan muncul kembali. Memang tidak dinafikan bahawa terhadap perbezaan ketara saiz yang diguna pakai di Malaysia, berbeza diantara satu negeri ke negeri yang lain. Isu sebegini s ebenarnya membebri masalah kepada pemain-pemain. Ada sesetengah pemain enggan bermain di negeri-negeri tertentu dengan alasan saiz meja yang diguna tidak sama dengan saiz yang buiasa digunakannya.

Untuk tidak memanjangkan lagi isu ini, pihak PSLNS menyeru semua pihak yang terlibat merujuk kembali kepada ukuran sebenar yang telah ditetapkan oleh World Armsport Federation (WAF).
