JAKARTA - Indonesian mixed doubles finally spoke with Nova Widianto's departure. The coach decided to leave PBSI and chose to train in Malaysia.
Nova's move was positively addressed by Rinov Rivaldy/Pitha Haningtyas Mentari and Rehan Naufal Kusharjanto/Lisa Ayu Kusumawati. They admitted that they were not disturbed by this.
Rehan/Lisa considered that they were still training professionally. The adaptation process is not going well because Amon, who previously served as Nova's assistant, is currently being trained.
"If I am not disturbed. Moreover, we must be professional too, we must not be picky about coaches. Whoever the coach is, must be able to adapt, as an athlete must be professional and want to be trained by anyone," said Rehan, as quoted by Antara, Saturday, January 7.
"It's not disturbed, we're adults so it shouldn't be an obstacle. So far it's almost the same program," Lisa added.
Rehan/Lisa don't want Nova's departure to affect the quality of their game. For that, they continue to train consistently according to the direction given.
In fact, they also took the initiative to increase the portion of training independently if they felt there was something missing.
"Moreover, now we want to enter the Race to Olympics, so many opponents want to show their skills. From there the training must be even more extra," Lisa said.
Meanwhile, Rinov/Pitha also felt that there was no significant change in the training program at the national training team after the departure of Nova, who now chooses to become the Malaysian national team's mixed doubles coach.
He saw that Amon Santoso, who is now replacing coach Nova, also provided a similar teaching so that he did not need a re-adaptation to absorb training materials.
"If you need adaptation, it's not really, yesterday it was replaced by his assistant (Amon), it's actually the same. At least there are certain details, but that has been previously notified," Rinov explained.
