Amir Farid vows to tame BJSS

By Ajitpal Singh

AMIR Farid Ahmad Fuzi, 18, will play his last match for Bandar Penawar
Sport School (BPSS) on Sunday and he hopes to end his career with the
school on a high note.
  However, Amir Farid's wish may not materialise as his team will face
favourites Bukit Jalil Sports School (BJSS) for the Malaysian Hockey
League (Under-19) overall title at the National Hockey Stadium.
  "I'm going to give my best. It's my last match before I leave BPSS and
I want to leave with something special," said Amir Farid, a
pre-university student, yesterday.
  "Although we defeated them 4-1 in the league (Division Two), I still
rate them as the favourites.
  "BJSS had already won the league title when they faced us then.
  "BJSS are an Under-17 team but their players are matured and strong.
They are exposed on a regular basis as they are based in Kuala Lumpur,
unlike my school."
  Amir Farid is the main goal scorer for BPSS, having notched 13 goals so
far.
  The Trolok-born player, who has been studying at BPSS since Form 1,
also had a brief spell with the national junior team in the German Tour
in 2007.
  Amir Farid said his biggest disappointment was failing to lead the team
to the Division Two league title.
  "We dropped unnecessary points against lowly teams and it cost us the
title. We have put it behind us for the final."
  BPSS are featuring in their first overall final as a single entity
since making their debut in 2005.
  The sports school started life in the MJHL as a combined team with BJSS
in 2003.
