Shahir Reza,

USC is still thinking of sending a basketball team to the Midwest Games. I think you can be a valuable asset to the team. Then again, the basketball team is still pending upon having enough (quality) players.

I suggest that you go to this website:

Good Luck and Fight On!!!

I think we should put this thread to recom Sports SIG instead.

I have a concern regarding the Midwest Games rule. Is there any possibility that a participant can play other games besides playing soccer. For example, for a university that has a small number of students, it is frustrating not being able to send good teams, let say in soccer and volleyball, since soccer players who can play volleyball well are not able to participate in other events to help their contingents. I notice the clashes that might occur but if in the case the soccer team gets eliminated, they won't be any more clashes, will they? Anyone from Persisma out there that can clarify the matter?

p.s. My friend has sent an email directly to the organizer but no reply has been received as of now.

My friend if the Chef-D-Mission of the upcoming games. From what i understand, you can play multiple games but don't expect the host to help re-arrange the schedule any particular games just because you cannot be there. One of the most important rules during the midwest games is to be there on time. If you are 10 mins late, your team LOSE!. You have to have the whole team before the game, otherwise..you'll have to forfeit the game. I've been to 2 midwest games before and i acknowledge that they are very particular about time.

[FiAnS]

Thank you for the reply but my concern is not about the time schedule but rather the fact that soccer "players are not allowed to compete in any other sporting event." I took this excerpt directly from the official Midwest Games website. I am aware of the time clashes but by doing this, soccer players will not be able to help their teammates in other events be it as a substitute only. We also have to take into account teams that have been eliminated in the group matches. These players, in turn, can play other games instead.

[MarquisX]

Soccer matches will be time-dependent. The teams have to be on the field 20-30 mins before the game because the host just won't have enough time to finish off every games (they might end up shooting penalty, which obviously sucks!). I think the host want the players to focus on soccer to avoid players getting on the field late, thus making the games seem longer than it should. Plus, the host want to give more chances for other students to play sports!.

[aquila]

Pardon my ignorance but what are the Midwest games?

[FiAnS]

I understand the fact that the organizer wants other students be given a chance to play other sports. But my concern is regarding schools that have a small number of participants. In this case, the are not able to send their strongest squad in other games, if they are not allowed to field in their soccer players. That's my concern.

[tuinkle]

Hi,

I'm a student at Berkeley where there is only a Singapore Malaysia Students' Association. Is it still possible to participate in the games? Does anybody know how I should go about this? Has a website been set up yet?

Thanks a bunch!! :)

[poen]

To all ReCom members in the US,

My name is Hafidz, you can just call me poen. I am from University of Minnesota, Twin Cities and I am the Secretary of External Affairs for the Midwest Games 2004. Here are responses to some of the questions/issues raised:

1.1 Barring of soccer players from registering/participating in other events.

It has been a system in place since the first Midwest Games 2004 that soccer players is expected to focus fully on the soccer event. This is largely due to the fact that soccer matches take up more time and are often the most actively involved event at the Midwest Games. In relation to this, the soccer venue is also located quite a distance from the courts events making running to and from the venues ON TIME impossible. Hence, this rule has been set and no alterations will be made due to the MSD's emphasis on the issue of punctuality and efficiency.

1.2 Barring soccer players affects contingents who need them in court events.

I apologize once again as the Committee will not be able to make changes to event rules based on specific cases. However, there is always the "hybrid" option. You are welcome to recruit any player from any university into your team or even join other teams (if they allow you to) to make up for the small contingent size your university faces.

2.1 Universities with only Singapore/Malaysia Students Association

After reviewing this matter with the Ministry of Higher Education (sponsor) and MSD, it is allowed that these associations to participate in the Midwest Games 2004 under one condition: Athletes must only be Malaysians. However, your Singaporean members are always welcome to come as supporters. I hope this clears this matter up.

As for questions about Midwest Games 2004 details, here they are:

Where?
University of Minnesota, Twin Cities (Minneapolis-St Paul)

When?
28 May 2004 - 30 May 2004 (Memorial Day Weekend)

What?
A premier Malaysian students sports carnival. Fun, lots of fun. It is our version of the Olympics (We even have a Games Village for atheletes/supporters lodging, so SIGN UP NOW!)

So, I hope this post helps out with some of the issues raised by all of you ReCom members in the US. I hope that all of you will register ASAP (read: deadline is 26th APRIL 2004) and please, please sign up for the Games Village.

I hope to see all of you come this May. Thank you.

Regards,

Mohamed Hafidz Mohamed Ismail
Secretary (External Affairs)
Midwest Games 2004 Organizing Committee
