FRECHEN, Germany - Cambodian National Volleyball (Disabled) coach Christian Zepp covered an astonishing 66 kilometres over the weekend during a sponsored swim at the swimming pool of his hometown of Frechen, Germany. The 32-year-old German managed to raise US$1,100 for his chosen charity, the Pailin Frechen Lions Volleyball team, who compete in the Cellcard National Volleyball League (Disabled). Zepp said by email that he was "kind of devastated" Monday, but getting better Tuesday, noting that he had swum the equivalent of two English channel crossings, between Calais in France and Dover in England.

Today's double fix of Cambodian Premier League (CPL) games at Olympic Stadium may not afford much in the way of position changes, but should help clarify the way things will stand at the end of the season, just three rounds away. Post Tel club must record a win against National Defence Ministry, who are practically the only team that can take their place in the relegation zone. Their game kicks off at 2pm. In today's later game at 4pm, title chasers Preah Khan Reach will hope to keep pace with Phnom Penh Crown by winning against surprise package Spark FC. Anything but a loss for Spark will help leapfrog them over Build Bright United into the lucrative fifth place, and a strong finish to the end of the season could even grant them a place in the Super Four.

The manager and coach of reigning CPL champions Phnom Penh Crown travelled to Thailand over the weekend to spy on next Wednesday's Singapore Cup opponents Bangkok Glass. Manager Makara Be and head coach Apisit Im Amphai were conspicuously absent from the bench Sunday, when Crown pummeled Kirivong Sok Sen Chey 3-0. According to Crown assistant Coach Sam An, the duo were instead watching Bangkok Glass, currently third in the Thai Premier League (TPL), run over Provincial Electrical Authority FC 3-1 in Bangkok. Both are expected back today in preparation for Crown's fixture against Build Bright United on Saturday. Meanwhile, Cameroon-born striker Jean Roger Lappe Lappe, who has been loaned twice already this season to TPL side Samuth Songkram, is back with the CPL leaders, and is likely to feature in the weekend match.
