Even Though It Is Tough, The Women's Basketball Competition Is Reluctant To Give Up

JAKARTA - The future of the women's basketball competition, Srikandi Cup 2020, is still unclear. The participating clubs are still trying to find a way so that the competition can continue.

In a virtual meeting related to the continuation of the Srikandi Cup 2020, the participating teams admitted that it was difficult to continue the competition. However, the clubs are reluctant to just give up.

The six participating teams are trying to find the best way based on the spirit of mutual cooperation and kinship. Chairman of the Srikandi Cup Coordinator, Deddy Setiawan, said the safety and health aspects of the players were the main considerations.

According to him, it was hard to continue the competition because the cost of the event would increase if we adopted the health protocol from the World Basketball Federation (FIBA).

"In addition, the core business of each club owner is also different and of course with this outbreak it also has an impact on each other's financial problems. However, we still have not decided in the final whether Srikandi will continue this season or we will go straight to the playoffs. , "said Deddy.

The organizers are still considering various suggestions and input regarding the future of the Srikandi Cup 2020 competition. They also continue to monitor developments in the situation related to the COVID-19 event.

Deddy certainly hopes that the Indonesian women's basketball competition will continue this season. According to him, it is very unfortunate if the competition has to stop halfway.

"However, we also have to respect if there are clubs that end up experiencing difficulties and cannot finish until the rest of the season," said Deddy.

Currently, the organizers of the Srikandi Cup are still waiting for the implementation guide from the Indonesian Basketball Association, PERBASI. Deddy said, every development regarding the Srikandi Cup will be officially released as soon as possible.
