Organized with excellence by **Majlis Sukan Negeri Sabah**, the gala was a high-stakes recognition of the discipline and sacrifice required to reach the pinnacle of sports. The event was officiated by the Head of State, **Tuan Yang Terutama Tun Datuk Seri Panglima Haji Musa Aman**, alongside the Chief Minister of Sabah, **Yang Amat Berhormat Datuk Seri Panglima Haji Hajiji bin Haji Noor**.

Also in attendance to witness this historic milestone was the Minister of Youth Development, Sports Advancement and Creative Economy, **Yang Berhormat Datuk Haji Nizam bin Abu Bakar Titingan**, and senior state officials. Their presence underscored Muaythai's status as an elite pillar of the Sabah sporting landscape.

The crowning achievement of the night was the **Sabah Muaythai Association (PMNS)** being named the **Best Sports Association**. This honor validates a multi-year strategy focused on professional administrative excellence and high-performance results.

Muaythai Sabah: The New Standard of Excellence

In a historic sweep, **Eva Anastasia Warren** was heralded as the **Female Promising Sportswoman**, while **Jaethan Quan** secured the **Male Promising Sportsman** award. Their victories represent the technical evolution of Sabah's warriors on the world stage.

However, the depth of Muaythai Sabah’s success was truly felt in the **Finalist** categories. Standing as a Top Finalist against all other sporting disciplines in Sabah—competing against athletes and leaders from every major sport—is a massive honor. To have our representatives shortlisted among the best in the state proves that Muaythai Sabah is setting the benchmark for performance and leadership in the Land Below the Wind.
