'I hope the SBJ athletes will be able to spare some time on Aug 8 to come and fill up SSI to watch the match between JDT and Selangor for the Piala Sumbangsih,' he said when opening the two-day SBJ Games at the Tunku Mahkota Ismail Youth Centre (TMIYC) here last night.
Also present was State Youth, Sports, Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Committee chairman Mohd Hairi Mad Shah.
Onn Hafiz said that the SBJ Games, which began last year as an annual event, was an initiative by the Regent of Johor, Tunku Mahkota Ismail, to encourage the people of Johor, especially the youth, to engage in meaningful activities and strengthen the spirit of unity.
'The Regent of Johor wants the young people to progress, fill their time with beneficial activities, be educated and get good jobs,' he said, adding that the state government had allocated more than RM1.7 million for the sports meet.
Meanwhile, Mohd Hairi, in his speech, said that the SBJ Games was organised as a platform to discover new sports talents among young people, providing them the opportunity to be nurtured and developed towards becoming a major force in the sporting arena.
