JAKARTA The National Selection (Selection) of the Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI) 2025 was attended by 111 badminton players from 13 clubs throughout Indonesia.

The 2025 National Selection was officially opened by the Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports as well as Deputy Chairperson I of PBSI, Taufik Hidayat, at the PBSI National Training Center, Cipayung, East Jakarta, on Tuesday, February 11, 2025.

"I still remember more than 25 years ago. How do I stand in your position, a young athlete full of ambition, hope, and determination to prove myself," said Taufik in an official statement received.

Selection can only be followed by athletes aged 19 years and under in various sectors. They will fight for entrance tickets to the second phase of the PBSI National Training Center.

The details of the clubs that sent their athletes consisted of PB Djarum (49), DYS Candra Wijaya (3), Exist Badminton Club (11), Gideon Badminton (5), Jaya Raya Jakarta (16), Mutiara Cardinal (10), PB AIC (3), Power Rajawali (4), Pelatkot Tangel (4), Pelatprov East Java (3), Putra Mainaky (2), Tangkas (4), and Taqi Arena (1).

This year's National Selection is different from previous years because PBSI will take from the champions of each sector and receive input from a team of guides that have been formed for the purposes of this event.

In addition, after competing, the selected athletes will undergo a series of medical checks, sports science-based physical tests, psychological tests and IQ tests, as well as technical and tactical evaluations.

"The series of tests will help PBSI find athletes with the best potential. Not only from a technical point of view, but also physically, mentally, and with strategic thinking," said Taufik.

The 2025 PBSI National Selection will be held on 11-15 February 2025 at the PBSI National Training Center, Cipayung, East Jakarta. Athletes who can take part in the National Selection are single athletes and doubles champion of the 2024 cadet individual championship.
