A new event has been added to Subang Jaya’s sports calendar with the launch of the inaugural ADUN Subang Jaya Cup Basketball Tournament 2005 today.

Mooted by Subang Jaya assemblyman Datuk Lee Hwa Beng, the tournament is open to teams comprising residents of Subang Jaya, USJ, and Sunway.

“So we hope to see as many residents coming to watch and support their respective community teams,’’ he added.

The tournament is open to those aged 16 and above.

Event organising chairman Loo Chin Oon said so far, 14 teams had confirmed their participation.

“Besides promoting a healthy lifestyle among residents, this tournament also aims to uncover new talents from among amateur basketball enthusiasts.

“Hence, ex-senior and junior national players, state senior players, and players who have participated in the Agong Cup or Sukma Games are not eligible to register as participants. However, junior state or school players who have represented the MSSM are allowed to join,” Loo said.

Matches will be played at 7.30pm and 9pm today and at 6pm, 7.30pm, and 9pm tomorrow. The games will take place at the USJ 6 basketball court in Jalan USJ6/2B.

The winning team will walk away with the ADUN Subang Jaya Challenge Cup, a trophy and gold a medal for each player.

The runner-up, meanwhile, will receive a trophy and silver medals.

As for the third and fourth-placed teams, the players will each be receiving bronze medals.

There is no registration fee for participants. Instead, to help offset the teams’ preparatory expenses, Lee is offering a RM500 subsidy for each registered team.

The tournament is sponsored by Dergahayu Sdn Bhd and co-sponsored by Spalding, Sprite, Milo, and Water Shop, with the joint co-operation of the Subang Jaya Zone 2 residents’ committee.
