JAKARTA - PBSI targets at least three gold medals from the 2023 SEA Games at Phnom Penh, Cambodia. This target is based on a map of the strength of the opponent and also the experience of the previous SEA Games.
This was stated directly by the Head of the Development and Achievement Division of PBSI Rionny Mainaky.
"The target is from (the number) of teams, singles, and doubles. Yes, the three sons are the most," said Rionny, as reported by Antara.
Although optimistic about being able to repeat success at the 2021 SEA Games, Rionny still hopes that the Red and White Squad can bring more results at the Phnom Penh. "If possible, as much as possible," he said.
At the 2023 SEA Games, PBSI will field the coating squad. The reason is, the SEA Games schedule will clash with the 2023 Sudirman Cup.
As is known, the 2023 SEA Games will take place on May 5-17. Meanwhile, the 2023 Sudirman Cup will take place on May 14-21 in Suzhou, China.
"I have given it, it has been chosen," said Rionny.
Despite lowering the coating formation, PBSI has high confidence that the national team is able to compete with opponents who are already on par with the first team. Rionny ensured that the deployment of the coating team at the SEA Games was not an obstacle, because there were a number of strong athletes such as Chico Aura Dwi Wardoyo from the men's singles number.
"It's strong, I'm sure I can because it's already in the same class. In fact, the younger ones lost more because the SEA Games looked small but the pressure was bigger than the Asian Games, the Olympics," Rionny explained.
Meanwhile, Sudirman Cup, PBSI sees the team championship as more prestigious than the SEA Games. So the main badminton player will represent the Red and White on the agenda.
"Yes, there is indeed another 'full team' in Sudirman," said Rionny briefly.
