JAKARTA - The Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) and PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB) have announced that the 2020 League 1 competition will continue on November 1. However, this decision is not certain.
This is because PSSI and PT LIB have not yet received permission from the police. If it is canceled on November 1, PSSI and PT LIB have prepared two other options.
This uncertainty makes it difficult for a number of clubs to organize training programs, including Persebaya Surabaya. Coach Aji Santoso has to rack his brain to prepare the right training program for his team.
Aji said the Bajul Ijo team had only light training for the time being. The former coach of the Indonesian national team concocted training so as not to motivate players who are tired of waiting for the uncertainty of competition.
One way is by holding a lot of fun game elements in practice. Like a game with a carrying penalty at Persebaya practice on Monday.
Aji said that this step was quite effective in increasing the enthusiasm of the players. "The players are quite enthusiastic. It means that the children are training very seriously even though it is only their first training," said Aji Santoso.
Previously, Aji Santoso also applied rugby training to his foster children. The purpose of this training variation is to make the players feel happy.
He emphasized that the condition of the players is declining with the 2020 League 1 competition whose fate is not yet clear. "I see that the mentality of the players is down," he said.
