JAKARTA The women's doubles coach, Karel Mainaky, is confident that his team can talk a lot against the top pair in the 2025 Super 500 BWF Arctic Open which took place this week.
The Arctic Open 2025 is scheduled to take place on October 7-12 2025 at Vantaan Energia Areena, Vanta, Finland. Indonesia only sent three women's doubles pairs to the tournament.
The three couples are Febriana Dwi Puji Kusuma/Maysa Trias Puspitasari, Rachellessya Rose/Febi Setianingrum, and Amalia Cahaya Pratiwi/Lanny Tria Mayasari.
Karel ensured that his team had gone through a lot of thorough preparations so he hoped they could perform as desired at the time of the tournament later.

"If you look at the preparations, as long as they can show what has been done in training, I'm sure you can."
"Specifically, I always remind you to play according to your needs, according to the instructions I give. Focus there," said Karel.
The preparations for the three pairs are currently continuing in the tournament arena. They have undergone their first training in Finland, especially to adapt to the field of the match, on Monday, October 6, 2025, local time.
Karel said that they still have one day to finalize their preparations because it is possible that their foster children will only compete on Wednesday, October 8, 2025.
"If there is no change in schedule, we will only compete on Wednesday. So tomorrow there is still a chance to practice, hopefully the conditions are 100 percent," he said.
Undian put the three pairs on a difficult path. Lanny Tria Mayasari/Amallia Cahaya Pratiwi are in the top quarter or potentially meet with first seed Liu Sheng Shu/Tan Ning (China) in the quarter-finals.
If they can get past the first half, Lanny/Amallia will also likely meet seventh seed Chang Ching Hui/Yang Ching Tun from China Taipei.
Meanwhile, Rachellessya Rose/Febi Setianingrum is likely to meet with the third seed from Japan, Rin Iwanaga/Kie Nakanishi, in the second round.
Then Febriana Dwi Puji Kusuma/Maysa Trias Puspitasari could face Malaysia's first seed Pearly Tan/Thinaah Muralitharan, in the second half.
