*Both of Trans TV and Trans7 will only televise INA team matches (except finale), what a pity they really have broadcasting limitation for this big event. Even quarter and semifinal they only air 1 match, so disappointed.

and indonesia`s team match will be their 1st priority:)

clely, whats the official website of this tournament?

I have compiled all the available information on the Live Streaming and telecasts of the Thomas and Uber Cup 2008 here:

The Badminton Blog - Thomas and Uber Cup Live (http://thebadmintonblog.blogspot.com/2008/05/thomas-and-uber-cup-live.html)


If anyone has additional information please contact me. As far as I know, there is no live streaming for the preliminary rounds.

clely, whats the official website of this tournament?

george, NO official website for TUC 2008. According to media, Linda Wahyudi (TUC organizer of media affair) said PBSI doesn't have human resources to create website including online ticket facility (KOMPAS print edition, May 06/08).

All I can say the promotion for this tournament in Jakarta as the host is very minimum. Really wish many badminton fans will come to Istora...
