JAKARTA - The management of Bali United officially canceled team activities after the 2020 League 1 competition was canceled in early November. In fact, reportedly, the continuation of the 2020 League 1 competition will only be held in early 2021.
This decision was taken by the Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) at a meeting of the Executive Committee. In that meeting, PSSI has given the authority to PT Liga Indonesia Baru to manage the national football competition system in early 2021.
"Surely the team is sad to hear the news about the continuation of League 1. (Even though) Bali United is ready to play," said the club coach nicknamed Serdadu Tridatu, Stefano Teco Cugurra.
The Brazilian coach said his players had worked hard in training. Apart from that, his team also carried out the health protocol very well and strictly.
After being closed, the Bali United players were asked to maintain their physical condition by doing independent training at home. Teco said, there has been a training program provided by the physical coach for the players during the holidays.
"Hopefully there will be changes and good news regarding the competition," said the former Persija Jakarta coach.
Bali United is not the only League 1 club to end team activities off. Previously there were Persija Jakarta, Persebaya Surabaya, Persita Tangerang and Madura United.
