00:00The Malaysian Badminton Association would like to send players to the Olympic Games in Paris for a training camp in the middle of next month.
00:17Located in Kuching, Sarawak, the camp will focus on the psychology of the players,
00:22to prepare for the world's most prestigious badminton event, which is only 72 days away.
00:34According to the head coach of the Malaysian Badminton Association, Reksy Manuki,
00:38the BAM is taking drastic measures by employing road-to-gold psychology expert, Frederick Tan,
00:44to help players improve their mental defense in both indoor and outdoor situations.
00:50Why are we involving Frederick in the meeting?
00:55What are Frederick's plans?
00:58And when he returns from Indonesia,
01:02do I really have to tell him what to do?
01:04But I can ask Frederick himself,
01:07that on June 11th, 12th, 13th, we will fly to Sarawak.
01:13There, we will make their tip-off, their focus, their commitment,
01:21what they see the Olympics as.
01:24Mostly, we don't have badminton there,
01:26it's just how to release everything from,
01:29as people say, after three tournaments.
01:32This is the time for people to say, after three tournaments,
01:35rather than we use the players to rest at home,
01:39but we use this to, as people say,
01:44recover from all the stress.
01:48A total of five national representatives, including men's badminton players, Aaron Chia,
01:51Suwoyik, women's badminton players, Pearlie and Tina,
01:54as well as a man, Lizzy Jia,
01:56have confirmed their place in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
