Coaching Team Yet to Finalise Squad for April 27-May 4 Tournament
KUALA LUMPUR, April 1 (Bernama) – The list of players who will represent the country in the 2025 Sudirman Cup Badminton Championship is set to be announced on Friday (April 4). National doubles coach Nova Widianto said this was because the coaching team had yet to finalise the squad for the April 27-May 4 tournament in Xiamen, China.
“The long list is still there, nothing is finalised yet. Maybe we will announce it on April 3, maybe on Friday,” he told reporters after the national squad’s training session at Akademi Badminton Malaysia here today.
