KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 4 (Bernama) – National professional mixed doubles pair Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai Jemie have joined the centralised training camp at Akademi Badminton Malaysia (ABM) in Bukit Kiara as part of their preparations for the 2025 Badminton Asia Mixed Team Championships (BAMTC) in Qiandao, China, from Feb 11 to 16.
National mixed doubles coach Nova Widianto confirmed that the pair had begun physical training and would start using the training courts this Thursday.
“Yes, Rexy (ABM Coaching Director) informed me that they have started their physical training today,” he told reporters after a team training session at ABM.
Soon Huat-Shevon are the only experienced pair joining the national mixed doubles duo Hoo Pang Ron-Cheng Su Yin in the squad.
Malaysia have been drawn into Group B alongside Indonesia, Hong Kong, and Kazakhstan for the tournament.
Nova added that due to time constraints, there are no plans for overseas training camps, and that all the players will undergo intensive preparation focusing on tactical and physical training at ABM.
