18th OCM Annual Dinner

The 18th OCM Annual Dinner will be held on 14th January 2011 at 8.00 p.m. at OCM Indoor Sports Arena, Level 3, OCM Indoor Sports Complex, Kuala Lumpur. The Guest of Honour is YB Senator Gan Peng Sieu, Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports Malaysia.

The OCM Annual Dinner was first held in 1993, and since then it has been held every year, either in December of that year or in January of the following year. The main objective of the OCM Annual Dinner is to organise an annual gathering of the OCM family, comprising OCM Office Bearers, staff, the NSAs and present and retired national athletes, OCM’s sponsors and partners, such as MSN, ISN, KBS, Coca-Cola, etc., OCM’s volunteers, friends and supporters, to celebrate the success of the past year, to recognise the outstanding athletes (present and past) and officials and to show our appreciations to our sponsors and partners that their support have been put to good use by OCM, for the development of sports in Malaysia.

At the OCM Annual Dinner, the OCM-Coca-Cola Olympians of the Year are presented to the most outstanding male and female athletes, who participated in either the SEA Games (during odd years), or the Olympic Games (during a leap year) or the Asian and Commonwealth Games (during the even non-leap year). The reason for selecting the above four important multi-sports Games for the selection of the Olympians of the Year is not to duplicate National Sportsman/Sportswoman Awards and also because the above four Games are directly under the jurisdiction of the Olympic Council of Malaysia.

At the 18th OCM Annual Dinner, the following awards will be presented:
  • The 2010 IOC Trophy “Inspiring Young People” to be awarded to the Sports Division of the Ministry of Education.
  • The following will be inducted to the OCM Hall of Fame:
  • Encik Mike Shepherdson – Double International in Cricket and Hockey. Represented Malaya at the 1956 Olympic Games and the 1958 and 1962 Asian Games.

CGA Malaysia – 100Plus Outstanding Athletes of the Delhi XIX Commonwealth Games Awards

The Commonwealth Games Association (CGA) of Malaysia is another name of the Olympic Council of Malaysia, when participating in the Commonwealth Games and other activities of the Commonwealth Games Federation. The reason for also being known as the CGA of Malaysia is because the Commonwealth Games Federation, unlike the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) and the SEA Games Federation, has no direct link with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and does not receive any funding from the IOC or Solidarity.

The CGA of Malaysia and 100Plus are jointly recognising the achievements of the Malaysian Commonwealth Games athletes who participated at the Delhi XIX Commonwealth Games, by presenting the CGA Malaysia – 100Plus Outstanding Athletes of the Delhi XIX Commonwealth Games on 13th January 2011 at 3.00 p.m. at OM Sports Museum, Wisma OCM Phase II. The two most outstanding male and two most outstanding female athletes of the Delhi XIX Commonwealth Games will each receive a cash award of RM5,000/=.
