"The initiative is to boost the confidence of the athletes in their quest for success," he told Bernama Thursday.

Zainal Abidin said Terengganu athletes competing in the London Olympics are cyclists Adiq Husaini Othman, Amir Mustafa Rosli, Fatihah Mustafa, Azizul Hasni Awang and archers Khairul Anuar Mohamad and Nurul Syafiqah Hashim.
