Macau a strange case, and Asia the asleep Continent

Since the beginning of Roller Hockey activity that Asia is one of the worst continents concerning it.
There are a lot of reasons for this situation:
  • CARS (Confederation Asia of Roller Sports), presided by Mr. Sheng Zhiguo, doesn't promote and develop roller hockey.
  • CIRH doesn't promote the rising of an Asian Roller Hockey Confederation like happens in Africa and Europe, which would have a main role in our sport.
  • Inline hockey is getting day by day much important, taking Roller Hockey to a second plan
  • Few countries play Roller Hockey, for example in last Asia Cup, only Macau, India, Taiwan and Japan were present (China, North Korea, South Korea, Pakistan, Hong Kong had been played roller hockey years ago).
  • Asian Cup is the unique international competition in Asia-there's any competition between clubs.
 For example it's not decided yet the location of 2012 Asia Roller Sports Cup. "Hoje Macau" talks about China, but there's any confirmation, just some months before the competition, reveling all disorganization of CARS.


Casa de Portugal A in 2005 with 13 players (Where are them?)
Taking a brief look on Roller Hockey history, it's possible to observe that Macau has dominate the sport until today:
  • Asian Champion for 8th times
  • Unique Asian country to dispute FIRS World Cup
  • Unique Asian country to play Nations Cup in Montreux
Unhappily the situation seems to change forever, due to many facts. The president of Associação de Patinagem de Macau (Roller Sports Macau Association), António Aguiar, and their players accuse Macau Government to not build a new Roller Hockey rink, where could be possible to practice our sport. The unexistance of rink to play stopped the Macau Championship and the school bases program in Casa de Portugal (2005 and 2006 was the last time reported) wasn't reported any more.
Casa de Portugal A in 2006 with 11 players
The National Championship, was played usually for three teams connected to Portugal:
According to "Hoje Macau" Dom Bosco, the same rink that doensn't have conditions to practice roller hockey, received in last days of October the Inline Hockey Championship!!!!
Worst than that are the teams playing it... the same that played roller hockey until some years ago. All this situation is quite curious and revels that some people is lying. Seems that soon Roller Hockey will be substituted by Inline Hockey, forgetting all cultural connexion between Portugal and Macau, where inline hockey is not included.
Like happens in a lot of things in Macau, the Region doesn't resist to China invasion, and forget all it ancients.

Some months ago other newspaper from Macau, "Ponto Final" reported the opinion of Antonio Aguiar (APM president) concerning the actual presidence of CIRH, by Mr. Harro Strucksberg. He said that there were some movements to take off Mr. Harro, and he was a possible name to manage CIRH.





Rolling Together just has the doubt... How a man that is not able to manage roller hockey in his own region wants and thinks will be able to coordinate roller hockey all over the world???

  1. Ricardo, had you ever tought that maybe Harro never did anything for german roller hockey development?

    Did you ever thinked if Mr Harro forgot Asian Roller Hockey, only because Mr Aguiar was never at Harro's side?

    Do you think that it is fair to talk about Mr Aguiar lack of power, after about 30 years of Macau's roller hockey development? Harro was not abble to put roller hockey in the World Games, when it was played in his own city, Duisburg... so...??

  2. Tal como o Sr Aguiar o Sr HArro foi presidente da Federação Alemã antes de estar no CIRH. Pode não ter feito grande trabalho mas se vires neste momento o estado do hóquei alemão estou quase certo que está bem melhor que há uns anos atrás...
    Em relação a ele poder-se ter esquecido do hóquei asiático por causa do Sr. Aguiar são tudo suposições mas está provado que não se pode estar à espera do CIRH para nada...

    Não te esqueças daquele email que te enviei em relação aos jogos mundiais onde o sr. Harro falava do seu enorme esforço para colocar o hóquei nos mesmos jogos. Tenho respeito por todos os 30 anos de trabalho, mas daí a admirar a sua candidatura ao CIRH só se for mesmo para pela primeira vez termos alguém da ásia a dirigir este orgão o que poderia ajudar ao desenvolvimento do hóquei por lá...

  3. LA FIRS ni la CIRH promocionan el hockey patines a nivel mundial pero tampoco lo hacen la Confederación sudamericana CSHP ni la Confederación Panamericana en nuestro continente. Venezuela, Cuba, México, Costa Rica, Panamá, Ecuador algún día tuvieron un buen nivel de hockey Patín y que ha pasado? No han tenido el apoyo internacional. A propósito, lo hace la CERH en Europa? Que pasa con paises europeos que practicaban el deporte del hockey sobre patines. Todo indica que se requiere un gran cambio a todo nivel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
