Lance Corporal (U) Rosmin bin Haji Muhammad Kamis (born 17 June 1981) is a Bruneian former footballer and current fitness coach at DPMM FC. He was a midfielder for the Bruneian M-League representative team and most famously DPMM FC as captain of the 2015 S.League championship winners.{{cite web |title=Brunei DPMM finally lift S.League title|url=https://tnp.straitstimes.com/sports/singapore-football/brunei-dpmm-finally-lift-sleague-title|date=22 November 2015|publisher=The New Paper|access-date=6 February 2018}}

Club career

Rosmin began his career in 2000 with the Brunei team that was playing in the Malaysian league system.{{cite web |title=M-League - Subhi new Brunei hotshot|url=http://www.e-borneo.com/cgi-bin/np/viewnews.cgi?category=2&id=993189896|date=22 June 2001|publisher=Borneo Bulletin|access-date=15 May 2015}} He played for Brunei FA until 2005.{{cite web |title=Malaysia 2005|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesm/malay05.html|date=17 February 2005|publisher=Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation|access-date=15 May 2015}}

At club level, Rosmin first turned out for AH United,{{cite web|title=Football - AH United in second spot|url=http://www.e-borneo.com/cgi-bin/np/viewnews.cgi?category=2&id=990074417|publisher=Borneo Bulletin|date=17 May 2001|url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20231108213320/http://www.e-borneo.com/cgi-bin/np/viewnews.cgi?category=2&id=990074417|archivedate=8 November 2023|accessdate=25 October 2024}} then when the B-League was first established in 2002 he played for the football team of his day-job employers the Royal Brunei Armed Forces, which would later on be called MS ABDB.{{cite web |title=ABDB edged DPMM 4-3 in the Proton league.|url=http://www.brunei.gov.bn:80/hotnews/1002/12/football.htm|date=|url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20021013101724/http://www.brunei.gov.bn:80/hotnews/1002/12/football.htm|archive-date=13 October 2002|publisher=Information Department, Prime Minister's Office of Brunei|access-date=19 March 2021}} He won the Brunei FA Cup in 2003, beating Kota Ranger FC with 3 goals unanswered. Despite denying them the B-League title the previous season, DPMM FC signed him in 2004 as part of the royally-owned club's spending spree and his team would eventually steamroll the league to win the championship unbeaten.{{cite web |title=Brunei 2004|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesb/brunei04.html|date=26 May 2005|publisher=Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation|accessdate=5 May 2021}}

Rosmin would also play an eventful FA Cup final against his former teammates the Armed Forces, when after 90 minutes of goalless action that sent the game to extra time, he had to go between the sticks after DPMM FC goalkeeper Wardun Yussof was sent off with three substitutes already used. In the ensuing penalty shootout, he saved two spot-kicks to complete a domestic double for Prince Al-Muhtadee Billah's club.{{cite web|title=DPMM FC win FA Cup|url=http://www.brudirect.com/DailyInfo/News/Archive/Jan05/090105/bb_sports01.htm|publisher=Borneo Bulletin|date=9 January 2005|url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20050113174027/http://www.brudirect.com/DailyInfo/News/Archive/Jan05/090105/bb_sports01.htm|archivedate=13 January 2005|accessdate=5 May 2021}} He subsequently won the 2004 B-League Player of the Year in his first season with DPMM.{{cite web|title=Top soccer stars honoured|url=http://www.brudirect.com/DailyInfo/News/Archive/Feb05/020205/bb_sports01.htm|publisher=Borneo Bulletin|date=2 February 2005|url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20061112133534/http://www.brudirect.com/DailyInfo/News/Archive/Feb05/020205/bb_sports01.htm|archivedate=12 November 2006|accessdate=23 January 2024}}

In December 2005, DPMM replaced Brunei FA for the 2005–06 Malaysia Premier League season. Now serving as captain, Rosmin led the team to finish third in the 'A' group of the regular league, but due to the expansion of the Malaysia Super League to 14 teams from eight, DPMM entered the promotion and relegation playoffs against Pahang and won the tie 2–1 on aggregate. The next season saw them miraculously finish in third place, thanks to prolific striker Shah Razen Said who became joint top-scorer in the league.

When DPMM moved to the Singaporean league in 2009, Rosmin lifted the League Cup as captain after slotting home the winning penalty in the final.{{cite web |title=Wardun saves the day as DPMM FC win League Cup|url=http://www.bt.com.bn/local_sport/2009/06/20/wardun_saves_the_day_as_dpmm_fc_win_league_cup|date=20 June 2009|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=15 May 2015}} He was released after the season ended abruptly due to a FIFA suspension of Brunei,{{cite web|title=DPMM FC release 11 players|url=http://www.bt.com.bn/sport-national/2009/11/07/dpmm-fc-release-11-players|date=7 November 2009|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=15 May 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150518101404/http://www.bt.com.bn/sport-national/2009/11/07/dpmm-fc-release-11-players|archive-date=18 May 2015|df=dmy-all}} and promptly joined MS ABDB where he won the domestic FA Cup in 2010.{{cite web|title=ABDB deny QAF FC history|url=http://www.bt.com.bn/sport-national/2010/04/18/abdb-deny-qaf-fc-history|date=18 April 2010|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=15 May 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150415183804/http://www.bt.com.bn/sport-national/2010/04/18/abdb-deny-qaf-fc-history|archive-date=15 April 2015|df=dmy-all}} That season, he ended QAF FC's 34-game unbeaten streak by scoring two goals in the final game of the 2009-10 Brunei Premier League, although QAF FC were already champions by then.{{cite web |title=Qaf - BPL 1 Champions !|url=http://bruneifootball.blogspot.com/2010/03/qaf-bpl-1-champions.html|date=1 March 2010|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=29 March 2017}}{{cite web |title=QAF's series of 34 matches unbeaten in the Brunei Premier League|url=https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/unb-qaf-34.html|date=14 May 2010|publisher=Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation|access-date=29 March 2017}}

International career

Rosmin made his international debut for Brunei at the 2004 AFC Asian Cup qualification which was held in Maldives. He played the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 draw against the home team on 21 March 2003.{{cite web |title=Maldives 1 : 1 Brunei Darussalam|url=http://www.pakfootball.org/match_report.php?m=681488|date=|publisher=Data Sports Group|access-date=23 January 2017}} He also played against Myanmar two days later in a 5–0 loss.{{cite web |title=Brunei Darussalam 0 : 5 Myanmar|url=http://www.pakfootball.org/match_report.php?m=681489|date=|publisher=Data Sports Group|access-date=23 January 2017}}

Rosmin's next international appearance was at the 2012 AFF Suzuki Cup qualification held in Myanmar, where he captained the side to two wins out of four. He also led the team in the 2014 tournament in Laos, where Brunei lost all their games.

Rosmin was made captain of Brunei for the 2016 AFF Suzuki Cup qualification matches that was played in Cambodia in October 2016.{{cite web |title=Rosmin wants focus, concentration|url=http://www.bt.com.bn/sports-national/2016/10/14/rosmin-wants-focus-concentration|date=14 October 2016|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=24 October 2016}} He did not start the first game against Timor-Leste as Mike Wong opted for Nur Ikhmal Damit and Shahrazen Said in the central midfield roles, and only came on at right-back to replace Fakharrazi Hassan later in the game which finished 2–1 in favour of the Wasps.{{cite web|title=Brunei off to winning start|url=http://www.bt.com.bn/sports-national/2016/10/16/brunei-winning-start|date=16 October 2016|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=24 October 2016|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161027131120/http://www.bt.com.bn/sports-national/2016/10/16/brunei-winning-start|archive-date=27 October 2016|df=dmy-all}} He did not retain the captain's armband from Faiq Bolkiah despite starting the game at left-back against hosts Cambodia in a 0–3 loss.{{cite web |title=Wasps go down to Cambodia in AFF qualifiers|url=http://www.bt.com.bn/sports-national/2016/10/19/wasps-go-down-cambodia-aff-qualifiers|date=19 October 2016|publisher=The Brunei Times|access-date=24 October 2016}} Rosmin was finally played in central midfield in the final game against Laos where Brunei fell again to a 4–3 scoreline.{{cite web |title=Laos vs. Brunei 4 - 3|url=https://int.soccerway.com/matches/2016/10/21/asia/asean-football-championship/laos/brunei-darussalam/2337264/|date=|publisher=Soccerway|access-date=24 October 2016}}
