“Value Add” is a term Malaysian chief coach Wong Choong Hann uses frequently these days. He emphasises it while speaking of how the team is training during lockdown, without access to the resources that badminton players took for granted earlier.
Wong believes that, while there are limitations on regular training, this is a good time to build abilities that were earlier put on the back burner.
“We expect that we will not achieve our optimum level when we come out of this, but we do have time to build ourselves again, so we’re not too worried,” said Wong, who, like everyone else, is working from home and directing the team’s training. “At this point, we can look at different areas in practice, like the psychological side, because we have time to practice those things. This is the time we can give a value add to our programme.
