THE BA of Malaysia (BAM) has approved Rexy Mainaky's request for Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong to have joint-training sessions with back-up pairs in order to help the senior combination improve their defence.
Rexy and back-up coach Tan Kim Her have agreed on twice a week sessions besides matchplay on Wednesday and Saturday.
The first session was held yesterday where Boon Heong had a one-hour session with Mak Hee Chun-Tan Wee Kiong and Goh Wei Shem-Lim Khim Wah.
Kim Her said it will be a long term arrangement as both groups of players will benefit from the training.
"The arrangement was to help Kien Keat and Boon Heong improve their defence while the back-up pairs will also improve by training with the top pair. It is a long term plan as it is going to help all the pairs in their preparation for the 2012 Olympics."
"Boon Heong had a one-hour session with Hee Chun-Wee Kiong and Wei Shem-Khim Wah who did the attacking. Kien Keat wasn't around but he will join the next session.
"I will not involve the younger back-up combinations as Kien Keat-Boon Heong will not benefit much from the training. Rexy and I have to constantly discuss so that the training sessions are fruitful and there is progress."
The joint-training is one of the ways Rexy feels Kien Keat-Boon Heong can rectify some of their weaknesses as Hee Chun-Wee Kiong and Wei Shem-Khim Wah are quite effective in their attacks.
The back-up pairs have also been struggling of late and getting quality training time with Kien Keat-Boon Heong is also expected to help them develop their overall performance.
