BAM place faith on Indonesian coaches in revamp


PETALING JAYA: Malaysia have decided to depend more on foreign coaches rather than locals as badminton chief coaches under the latest revamped coaching structure. The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) have named Indonesia’s Hendrawan, Flandi Limpele, Indra Wijaya and Paulus Firman as the chiefs of the men’s singles, men’s doubles, women’s singles and mixed doubles departments respectively.

The only other department – the women’s doubles, will be under the charge of former men’s doubles international Chan Chong Ming.
