Juniors playing in Division 2 for National GP. Division 1 for elit & back up. I seen those who're 19 y.o. playing for Divsion 2 but these are mostly ex BJSS, no longer train full time.
Some started off in Division 2 so must continue 2nd leg in Division 2(Tan Wee Tat, Goh Sze Onn, Loh Wei Sheng). Some like Zulfadli already go up Division 1 since 17 y.o.

george in jipun la... having sauna and sushi there. also stalking on reiko... lol.

too bad that the malaysian boys are tied up in perak open. This is a good exposure to them for the sg event. Hopefully the event timing can be adjusted in the future.

I am very impressed with the pinoy juniors.

The indonesian are making a lot of intimidating noise after each point. It rattles the opponent a bit.

I have high regards for Zulfadli, future star..his determination is shown by how he fought his way into BAM setup, beating his peers along the way. SAw him play at AJC2009, he has good height (for his age), a crafty and intelligent player and showed little fear..need to work out on his fitness..rough unpolished diamond.

“I played against Chong Wei once when I was 14. Unfortunately, I could not raise my game in my second meeting against him too. He was too good and too fast for me and I lacked preparation,” said Zulfadli, who lost the match 9-21, 8-21.

“From now, I can go full-time into badminton. I will focus on ending my junior career on a high note next year.”

Zulfadli will no longer be eligible to compete in the Asian and world junior championships in 2012.

“Currently, my world ranking is quite low. I will continue to play in international tournaments to win ranking points and also to gain as much experience as possible,” he said.

On whether he would want to join the national badminton set-up now that he has completed his SPM, Zulfadli said: “I have not decided yet.

“Anyway, there is not much difference whether I am in or out. I only miss out on quality sparring but I can make up by competing in many tournaments.”

Huh? FIght his way into BAM ??? Zulfadli(and maybe his dad) didnt want to be in BAM, BAM & BJSS kept asking him many times. His dad signed Zulfadli with KLRC when he was 14 or 15, the lad seems happy being an independent.
