PETALING JAYA: The National Shooting Association of Malaysia (NSAM) are planning to rope in a foreign coach to narrow the gap between their Podium Prog­ramme shooters and back-up athletes.

Said NSAM secretary Jasni Shaari: “We already have a local coach handling the back-ups, but an experienced foreign professional can further enhance the system.”
