PETALING JAYA: With automatic places in the prestigious Thomas Cup and Uber Cup Finals up for grabs, Malaysia have no intention of closing the door on independent shuttlers when they compete in the Asia Team Championships at the Setia City Convention Centre in Shah Alam from Feb 15-20.

Teams who qualify for the semi-finals of the qualifiers will automatically secure their spots for the Finals to be held in Bangkok, Thailand, in May.

More interestingly, he said BAM would not deny the independent shuttlers a chance to join the national squad for the tournament, which is organised by the Selangor State Sports Council together with the state government, as hosts, besides getting the cooperation of Badminton Asia and BAM. We will look at various factors, including in terms of player contribution and also from the tactical aspect because this is a team game,” said Kenny.

The men’s squad emerged as the runners-up after losing to Indonesia in the final while the women’s team fell to Japan in the semi-finals.
