Taufik seeks Chinese badminton cooperation after retirement

EXCERPTS:

Seasoned Indonesian player Taufik Hidayat has said that he would seek more cooperation with China after his retirement, aiming to improve the performances of talented players trained in his international-class badminton hall here. Taufik, who has garnered dozens of men’s singles championships in international tournaments, plans to retire from his professional career mid-next year, reports Xinhua.

He said he would spend most of his time after his retirement to develop talented badminton players in his newly-built badminton hall and training centre located in Ciracas, eastern part of Jakarta, called Taufik Hidayat Arena (THA).
Besides his own team tasked to carry out the training programmes for talented badminton players from several countries, Taufik would see possibilities to seek more assistance from his experienced foreign counterparts, including those from China, whom he had built good relationship with during his 16-year career.

He said establishing cooperation with his Chinese colleague players is an option that he would take to hone up skills of badminton players trained in THA.

“I took part in Chinese badminton league recently. I feel so close with the country. The cooperation can be conducted by coach or players exchange programmes. Or perhaps, they can undertake training here or the other way around,” Taufik said.

All the very best Taufik.

Does this mean that Taufik is going to build up a high-class club ala Djarum, SGS, JayaRaya to compete? He needs to find a sponsor soon. I think he will do fine.
