Kopa Arena: USM Penang
First of all a round of congratulations to those behind the construction of the field at Universiti Sains Malaysia , Penang. It is nice to see a new football field being constructed and with the possibilities it can bring to the local community all the way to the national sports industry index.
Over the last number of years on social media. Community and grassroots football is usually echoed quite a bit from those who are based in the Klang Valley region. Steadily the voice has grown beyond one specific region to Terengganu and now Penang. With the hopes of more states and their cities and townships constructing community centres in the form of a football field. Be it artificial or natural. The most important thing behind a field or a spot is the governance of these facilities.
Governance must be fair for all as best as possible. So that everyone can grow and win.
One of the most exciting thing about seeing this field open at Universiti Sains Malaysia are the endless possibilities of a potential partnership to develop people for the football and sports industry. From organisers, to physios and more. As there must be equal efforts to build star players on and off the football field. One of the few ways to truly grow the beautiful game.
