Awang Mahyan, the famed Sarawak football coach of the 1980s, launched the 4th Milo "Play More Learn More" junior sports camp over the weekend at Kolej Politeknik in Kuching.
About 350 schoolchildren below 14 years old from various ethnic groups from nearby villages participated. The sports camp was jointly organised by RT Kampung Matang Lot under its chairman Ramzie Narudin, volunteers, coaches and parents of the players.
In the first hour of the camp, the children were taught the basic skills of football, netball and volleyball by qualified coaches. They later took part in a competition-cum-carnival.
