Dr. Nagulendran Kangayatkarasu, Secretary General of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, underscoring their support for grassroots development, youth empowerment, and sustainable sporting initiatives in Malaysia.
A dedicated Junior Coaching Session was conducted by several experienced pickleball coaches, drawing 75 enthusiastic youths, 35 of whom were sponsored by AmBank Group and Score Sports Management. The session introduced youths to the basics of the sport through fun drills, mini matches and interactive learning, nurturing confidence, sportsmanship, and connection among the next generation of Malaysian talent.
In an effort to drive collective impact, all event materials - from the trophy design to digital guides - were thoughtfully curated with an ESG mindset. In addition to a commitment to reducing single-use plastics through refillable water stations and the use of sustainable materials, 60 kilograms worth of old sneakers were collected, helping minimise landfill waste. These old sneakers will be recycled and repurposed into community-centric infrastructure such as running tracks, playgrounds, and court surfaces, benefiting parks and communities across Malaysia.
