List 20 Indonesian Badminton Players For The 2024 Junior World Championships

JAKARTA Indonesia sent as many as 20 athletes to appear at the 2024 Junior World Championship which will take place at the beginning of next week in China.

This series of events begins with the 2024 Suhandinata Cup mixed team tournament from September 30 to October 5, 2024, followed by individual numbers on October 7-13, 2024.

The Indonesian badminton team departed for the Bamboo Curtain Country on Friday, September 27, 2024, morning WIB. The group that departed consisted of 10 male athletes, 10 female athletes, and plus a support team.

Mixed doubles coach, Muhammad Rijal, said that the group was ready to compete for the event which would use the new relay point score format.

"Especially in mixed doubles, we have prepared ourselves for approximately three months. We have taken good care of a series of exercises from techniques, physical, and health perspectives," said Rijal.

The new format for the score system to be applied is the relay point with a total of 110 points. This is very different from badminton which has been synonymous with a score of 21 x 3.

This system makes one match filled with 10 parties consisting of two men's singles, two women's singles, two men's doubles, two women's doubles, and two mixed doubles.

The first match of the match was looking for 11 points with a rally point without settings, while the second and next match would be cumulative.

"With the change in the score format which is shorter, we must immediately focus on point by point. Reduce our own death," said men's doubles player Wahyu Agung Prasetyo.

Women's doubles player Rinjani Kwinara Nastine said that this change in format did not affect their goal of bringing Indonesia to become a champion.

"With this score of 11, we have to be really mentally and focused. From the start we have to attack the term. We hope that we will definitely bring the Indonesian team to win," he said.
