![NEW TAKRAW BODY SEEKS NSA STATUS](https://cdn.magzter.com/1617717947/1702680271/articles/pupZFMP2v1702693747499/NEW-TAKRAW-BODY-SEEKS-NSA-STATUS.jpg)
Former national coach Salim Marican has stepped up to head the Confederation Sepak Takraw Singapore (CSS), a new body that aims to replace the troubled Singapore Sepak Takraw Federation (Perses).
The 64-year-old confirmed that a coalition of 10 sepak takraw clubs has submitted an application to the Registrar of Societies (ROS) for CSS' formation.
He told The Straits Times he has stepped forward "in light of recent events that have significantly resulted in our loss of confidence in Perses' leadership and its governance".
On Nov 28, the International Sepak Takraw Federation (Istaf) announced its termination of Perses' membership, following an executive committee meeting in Kuala Lumpur. It cited "grave misconduct within Perses' leadership".
The decision means that Singapore's athletes will be barred from competing at the world and Asian championships, major Games and tournaments sanctioned by Istaf and its Asian counterpart.
Istaf added that Perses president Nasri Haron and secretarygeneral Zahid Abdul Aziz received a 12-year and seven-year suspension respectively from the Asian Sepak Takraw Federation (Astaf).
