Yes, results depend a lot on players. But the mark of a good organization is one that would be able to maximize the potential of their pool of resources, to unexpected heights even. For example, Korean BA, underrated but delivers goods in the Uber Cup. BAM has to measure itself against organizations that do better than it does. Or at least look and learn at its own history. The BAM setup of 20-30 years ago was one of the best ever, as it needed to be in order to bring Malaysian standards back to a competitive level since the downward spiral of the 1970s.
I agree with you that BAM is way better than PBSI. Most of the players from INA.. Has gone private. Our Malaysian players is neither here nor there. Want to go private also hard.BAM want to control everything yet not doing it's core job. I don't even think if they know what they are doing.
erm i think u are might suffer some memory lost:crying: limsy is the one who say malaysia might lost to japan weeks before tuc 2010 start are u trying to say i look down on japan? show me some evidence please lol of course this is funny when people proud about wr 1 u guys said major title is more important now,are u try to say wr 1 is important than major titles? did lcw won world champion and og like taufik does? did koo/tan won world champion and og like kido/hendra does? dont slap ur own face,thanks
at least PBSI are kind enough to let their player go solo... TCS was locked down in Msia for months without competition but when he wanna go solo.. got ban 2years!!! Msia Top 3 World Ranking Double Pairs are Solo professional players... Lee WW, Choon TF, Gan TC & Tan BS... They are not much better than the BAM boys but get to play tournament of their choices.. & gain valuable points... I think its better for BAM to let Go... for the sake of the country... instead use the money to groom those who wanna stay INSIDE BAM
1) To me that's home ground dis-advantage & I said so many times, including before the start of this TC. 2) INA MS1 is 2004 OG GOld medalist, WC champ, AG champ, ours only AE champ INA MD1 is 2008 OG Gold medalist, WC champ, ours are neither INA MS2(Simon, not Sony) is 23 or 24 this yr, uncle WCH =32/33. You all were the ones were always say WR#1 is nothing mah, why WR#1 suddenly become so important now? Against Japan, LCW, KKK/TBH did their part by winning their respective matches in straight sets. Msia lost the last 3 matches that caused us to have to meet Denmark in QF & China in semi, that's why some people dont shoot them as hard as Fuzzy & Hafiz.
agree... I don't think any msian in BC did boast about the No.1 Ranking... because we all know it doesnt meant much since some top players not competing muchi...
everybody wants to be world number 1 including lin dan but there is none who can meet the training sacrifices with results in tournaments accept one!
an example of enough trainings but not enough winnings to get the top 5 points? whaoh! 20 tournaments is a lot of course, training smart is important, having a longer preparation is just like fully charge our battery
Too much of MAS yummies Badminton: Malaysia cannot depend on 'old guards' anymore News 2010-05-18 15:37 KUALA LUMPUR, May 18 (Bernama) -- Malaysia cannot continue depending on 'old guards' to lead the country's challenge at the international stage, especially in badminton, said Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek. He added that the performances and ability of ageing national players was limited. "National back up shuttlers must be given an opportunity to show their talent and this should have been done a long time ago," he told reporters after launching the 2010 National Futsal League here today. National singles head coach Rashid Sidek and national doubles head coach Rexy Mainaky also echoed a similar sentiment. However, the National team's defeat in the Thomas and Uber Cup finals last week was not solely due to age factor but also a combination of technical and diet, said Ahmad Shabery. "The question was not about age entirely but we want the best talent to represent the country. But can't back up players beat veterans like Wong Choon Hang (33) and Muhd Hafiz Hashim (28)? "It is not only Malaysia who are facing such a predicament but Indonesia and Denmark are also in a similar situation," he said. In the Thomas Cup which ended last Sunday, the Malaysian team led by world number one Datuk Lee Chong Wei lost tamely 0-3 to eventual winners China in the semifinals. With world number one singles player Chong Wei and world number one doubles pair Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong in the stable, expectations were high on the Malaysian team to wrest the Thomas Cup after having won the cup in 1992 by beating Indonesia 3-2 at Stadium Negara.
You understood better. A very thoughtful write-up as if you are a Malaysian yourself going through the ups and downs and hardship the locals here encountered. There are others who contributed in this thread but none came as close as yours.
MAS younger players should be champions of Malaysia first . This is what MAS younger players need to know and to accept. They need to be able to defeat the MAS veterans consistently first, before they get selected to represent Malaysia. Some BCers have said that MAS younger players should be given more chances to challenge the world. IMHO, MAS younger players should be champions of Malaysia first, before they could be champions of the world. .
But...but some gurus in this forum said, if no give chance to juniors, aiya how juniors can improve lah. So in the end, the no so-good juniors no chance to play ball with LD and the china boys, so how-lah to get experience to beat the geezers back home
just to add: the mas younger players needs to be exposed outside more then beat all inside veteran then finally and hopefully become outside champions!
