The Terengganu Fight Festival (T-Fight Festival) 2023, which will take place at the Gong Badak Indoor Stadium from Sept 29 to 30, will be shariah-compliant.<\/p>\n
Terengganu Sports Council assistant director Nasree Najmi said the \u201cshariah-compliant sports\u201d and \u201cFit Is Sunnah\u201d concepts were not new, having been implemented during a series of muay thai tournaments in the state before the Covid-19 pandemic hit the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe state government has given some guidelines to follow where athletes can wear shorts but must wear tights covering the knee and the navel.<\/p>\n
\u201cOther sports are also not exempt. Whatever sport athletes want to contest, the organisers must adhere to the state government\u2019s policy,\u201d he told a press conference in Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Singamuda Kuda Merah PDRM club boxer Rafi Abdul Manaf said the implementation of the \u201cshariah-compliant sports\u201d would not affect his performance, Bernama reported.<\/p>\n
\u201cAdhering to this concept will not affect my fight routine and I can still put up my best performance,\u201d said Rafi, who is better known as Mat Ropi.<\/p>\n
Terengganu Muay Thai Association president Najmi Abdullah said the T-Fight Festival 2023 will enhance the image of the state government, which is committed to making the sports tourism industry a success.<\/p>\n
He also said the festival will attempt to make history by being recognised by the Malaysia Book of Records through a non-stop 16-hour martial arts performance, involving karate, wushu, taekwondo, silat, boxing and judo experts.<\/p>\n
The two-day festival is expected to be attended by 10,000 to 20,000 spectators. FMT<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
