The annual bodybuilding and fitness trainer course certificate award ceremony was held at the Duncan White Auditorium of the Ministry of Sports.

Certificates were awarded to 80 people who completed the 4-week training course. Shashini Jayanetty, Sports Director of the Sports and Recreation Department of the Colombo Municipal Council and the former President of the Bodybuilding and Physical Fitness Federation participated in this event.

The bodybuilding association accused the sports ministry has not focused on the association even though the association and the administration of the association are at a very good level. The bodybuilding association had planned to hold a discussion with the current sports minister to discuss the future work of the association and the future of sports, but the sports minister has not given an optimistic answer.

So far, no attention has been paid to this association and last year only three and a half lakhs of money were given to organize competitions, and it is alleged by the association that it is difficult to organize associations in this way.

வருடாந்த உடற்கட்டமைப்பு மற்றும் உடற்தகுதி பயிற்சியாளர் பாடநெறி சான்றிதழ் வழங்கும் நிகழ்வு விளையாட்டு அமைச்சின் டங்கன் ஒயிட் ஆடிட்டோரியத்தில் நடைபெற்றது.

4 வார பயிற்சி வகுப்பை முடித்த 80 பேருக்கு சான்றிதழ்கள் வழங்கப்பட்டன. இந்நிகழ்வில் கொழும்பு மாநகர சபையின் விளையாட்டு மற்றும் பொழுதுபோக்கு திணைக்களத்தின் விளையாட்டுப் பணிப்பாளரும் உடற்கட்டமைப்பு மற்றும் உடற்தகுதி சம்மேளனத்தின் முன்னாள் தலைவருமான ஷஷினி ஜயநெத்தி கலந்துகொண்டார்.

சம்மேளனமும், சங்கத்தின் நிர்வாகமும் மிகச் சிறந்த நிலையில் இருந்தும் விளையாட்டு அமைச்சு சங்கம் தொடர்பில் கவனம் செலுத்தவில்லை என உடற்கட்டமைப்பு சங்கம் குற்றம் சுமத்தியுள்ளது. உடற்கட்டமைப்புச் சங்கத்தின் எதிர்காலப் பணிகள் மற்றும் விளையாட்டின் எதிர்காலம் குறித்து தற்போதைய விளையாட்டு அமைச்சருடன் கலந்துரையாடல் ஒன்றை நடத்துவதற்கு உடலமைப்புச் சங்கம் திட்டமிட்டிருந்த போதிலும் விளையாட்டுத்துறை அமைச்சர் நம்பிக்கையான பதிலை வழங்கவில்லை.

Pathirana, Wanindu, Eshan Await Fitness Nod for IPL 2026

Sri Lanka’s Matheesha Pathirana, Eshan Malinga, and all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga are set to join their respective franchises in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, pending clearance from Sri Lanka Cricket’s (SLC) mandatory fitness tests.

The assessments, scheduled in the coming days, will determine their readiness after injuries kept them out of the ICC T20 World Cup earlier this year. Early signs suggest the players are recovering well, and officials remain optimistic about their participation.

Pathirana, who became the most expensive Sri Lankan player in IPL history after Kolkata Knight Riders secured him for INR 18 crore at the mini-auction, is expected to be a key figure with his death-over bowling expertise. He previously impressed at Chennai Super Kings, earning recognition for his composure under pressure.

While the trio awaits clearance, several Sri Lankan cricketers have already received their No Objection Certificates (NOCs). Kamindu Mendis, Pathum Nissanka, and Dushmantha Chameera are preparing to join their franchises, with Nissanka heading to Delhi Capitals, Chameera also continuing with Delhi Capitals, and Mendis retained by Sunrisers Hyderabad.
In total, seven Sri Lankan players will feature in IPL 2026, underlining the growing presence of the island nation’s talent in the league.
