JAKARTA – The Indonesian badminton team has departed for the All England 2022. A total of 23 of the best badminton players left with a focus on getting the title from the oldest event in the world.
A group of Indonesian athletes left Jakarta in the early hours of Friday, March 11. They flew using Emirates aircraft EK 359 from Soekarno-Hatta International Airport to Dubai, before continuing their journey to Birmingham, England.
"We go with the best strength. All the strongest players we have, we send to All England," said team manager, Rionny Mainaky, in an official statement.
The departing players included Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo, Marcus Fernaldi Gideon, Hendra Setiawan, Mohammad Ahsan, Leo Rolly Carnando, Daniel Marthin, and Gregoria Mariska Tunjung.
Apart from players, the group includes technical coaches, physical trainers, nutritionists, psychologists, physiotherapists, masseurs, and the support team.

Meanwhile, Anthony Sinisuka Ginting, Jonatan Christie, and Shesar Hiren Rhustavito, will join the team after the German Open. All three have now been eliminated from the BWF Super 300 event.
The Indonesian team went to All England after forgetting the trauma from last year. At that time the organizers forced the Indonesian badminton team to withdraw from the competition.
The decision was made by the organizers because the Indonesian team was on the same plane with passengers infected with COVID-19 on a flight from Istanbul to Birmingham.
"The experience of being banned from continuing the match like in the All England last, has been lost. They are now focused on facing the All England championship with enthusiasm to win," said Rionny.
The All England Championship will take place on March 16-20. Four Indonesian representatives from the men's doubles number directly faced each other in the first round of the Super 1000 level tournament.
