Rexy Mainaky satisfied to train Women and Mixed Doubles squad – Badminton news
Rexy Mainaky, Malaysia’s national doubles coach is satisfied to train the Women’s Doubles and Mixed Doubles shuttlers with determination and is willing to do his best to produce world class performances from the players under his charge.
The coach has been training the Men’s Doubles elite squad for the last five years. However, the back-to-back bad performances of shuttlers, for the last few tournaments, forced BAM to make some changes in the coaching structure.
Malaysia’s governing body of badminton decided to change the role of Rexy and assigned him to train the Women’s and Mixed Doubles shuttlers.
The coach accepted the new task without making any complains and is confident to help shuttlers to improve their game.
Rexy said, “I accept BAM’s decision with a happy heart and, most importantly, all of us coaches are clear about our responsibilities and we will each do our best with content.”
Now Rexy is planning to work on every aspect of coaching and wants to discuss everything relating to the game with every player under his charge. His major target is to make shuttlers competent and help them for qualifying for the Olympic Games.
The coach said, “Although I will go into on-court details with each individual player, the training programme will not differ much from (Pang) Cheh Chang’s original programme.”
He further added, “I am also aware of (Chin) Eei h*i and (Wong) Pei Tty’s past injuries and I will take them into account during training in order to let them regain full full fitness and to prevent them from aggravating the injuries.”
Rexy’s main target is to help shuttlers in getting good results in the 2012 Olympic Games which are not too far. Malaysia’s medal hopes in the Olympic Games will be Goh Liu Ying and Chan Peng Soon in Mixed Doubles and Pei Tty and Eei h*i in women’s Doubles.
The coach also wants to improve the skills of Sabrina Chong and Ong Jian Guo to take them to the standard of Goh Liu and Chan Peng. The coach has started working with the shuttlers and is hopeful for rapid improvement in their skills.
