PUTRAJAYA: Former athletes Qabil Ambak and Kimberly Yap have been appointed as members in the Sports Dispute Committee (SDC) in an effort to give voice to athletes facing issues.

The appointment was one of the positive steps announced by the committee yesterday, after being swamped with 75 cases last year, mostly of officials airing their grievances for failure to adhere to their associations’ constitutions.
