Palembang, The Indonesia Post – The Governor of South Sumatra H Herman Deru said that shooting sports has the value of sportsmanship, can foster a courageous spirit to be competent, dare to take a stand and make the right decisions.
He said this while attending the introduction of the South Sumatra Indonesian Hunting and Shooting Association (PERBAKIN) international license trainer and the introduction of the South Sumatra Provincial Government PERBAKIN coached Athletes.
“South Sumatra does have good shooting talent, but this is fluctuating, in order to survive and climb we recruit international coaches who have experience who are expected to impart knowledge to coaches and directly train children,” he said.
HD admitted that he was happy with the enthusiasm of the children in participating in this sport. It was previously known that HD had instructed the Education Office to make shooting sports an extracurricular to introduce the public, including children, that this is not an expensive sport, as well as to socialize that rifles are not tools of violence but sports equipment.
“Hopefully, with the new seeds, we will be more optimistic that South Sumatra can continue to maintain its achievements with international coaches,” he concluded.
The General Secretary of the South Sumatra Perbakin, Denni Gapril, said that based on the work program, the South Sumatra Perbakin management carried out a trainer upgrading activity which was attended by 58 participants from the South Sumatra Province and Regency/City who were recruited from the management and sports teachers.
Later, he continued, they will get a license as trainers and can train school children in their respective areas with their extracurricular activities.
