Badminton News: Chia Wei Jie Is Rexy’s Best Choice

Badminton News Chia Wei Jie Is Rexy’s Best Choice

Badminton News Chia Wei Jie Is Rexy’s Best Choice. Substitute Chia Wei Jie couldn’t believe his luck after being surprisingly named in the 12-member squad for the Thomas Cup Final in Bangkok next month.  The 22-year-old doesn’t want to waste this rare opportunity as he aims to capitalize on the valuable experience from the May 8-15 exhibition. Wei Jie, who struggled to make an impact in his first year with the reserves in 2019, has not been able to improve much in the last two years due to a lack of playing time due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

But two decent matches in Europe earlier this year. Where he and partner Low Hang Yee won the Ukraine Open and finished runners-up at the Swedish Open. It proved to have made a difference for him. Wei Jie did not expect the inclusion of the Thomas Cup. Given that he wasn’t even selected for the nine-day centralized training that started last Friday. “I was surprised when I saw my name on the list announced by BAM (Wednesday),” said Wei Jie.

“I’m not sure how I ended up in the squad. I know I won’t have a chance to make the final list. Unless I’m on the shortlist. And I do engage in match play sessions, but I’m by no means part of centralized training. But I think I don’t have to worry about how I’m selected. What’s important now is that I go there and confirm the coach’s belief in me.”

Get a chance to play

It remains to be seen if Wei Jie will get the chance to play. Because the team already has three tough pairs in the world No. 9 Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik. No. 11 Ong Yew Sin/Teo Ee Yi and No. 16 Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani. Wei Jie’s best chance of being relegated would probably be against New Zealand. The lowest-ranked team in Group A also consists of Japan and England. It is known that BAM has chosen to fill the last slot with doubles players. Afterward, they settled for just five singles in Lee Zii Jia, Liew Daren, Ng Tze Yong, Aidil Sholeh Ali Sadikin, and Leong Jun Hao.

Doubles coaching director Rexy Mainaky said: “During the last selection meeting, I was told to name the seventh doubles member. So I had to come up with the best choice. I chose Wei Jie because her performances are very consistent in practice. Her style of play can also be useful if we need to form a pair. beginning.”

Latest Sports News: Ice Hockey Fight Battle of the Hockey

Latest Sports News Ice Hockey Fight Battle of the Hockey

Latest Sports News Ice Hockey Fight Battle of the Hockey. The fledgling combat sports league “Ice War” will pit ice Hockey players against each other in the arena next month. But instead of scoring goals, the goal is to knock your opponents down.

“I call it a prize fight on the ice because no hockey is played at the end of the day. No sticks, no pucks, no nets. So yes, it’s complete hockey equipment, and most will be hockey players by now. But it’s a fight a gift with a wallet on the phone.” said Ice Wars president AJ Galante As a teenager, Galante’s father appointed him general manager of the now-defunct Danbury Trashers. A minor league team so ruthless and controversial that last year it was the subject of the Netflix documentary “Untold: Crime and Penalties”.

He’s moved into boxing and says a lot of interest in innovative combat sports from boxing to pillow fighting has made headlines recently. And made him believe that the time was right to launch his passion project. A fight will consist of two one-minute rounds with a 30-second “ice breaker” if the fighters split the rounds. Fighters will wear 4-ounce MMA gloves and cannot intentionally remove their opponent’s helmet. But if it comes off as a result of a great hit, its “play continues,” Galante said. The concept originated in the “Battle of the Hockey Enforcers,” an event held in British Columbia in 2005 and served as the inspiration for Ice Wars. Iceman Daniel Amesbury said he was eager to showcase his talent.

Ace Wars, Combat Sports

“While it sounds crazy, this is something that has always been on my mind. Six months ago, I told a friend of mine that it’s a shame that there isn’t a sport where I can take advantage of this unique skill I have. And I don’t know if I made it happen or not. What happened? It wasn’t long before it finally happened, and I’m excited,” Amesbury said. While no National Hockey League (NHL) players are expected to participate, Amesbury is preparing for stiff competition from players competing in the American Hockey League (AHL) as well as mid-level leagues such as the ECHL and LNAH. He said the length of the fight would guarantee non-stop action.

“The average hockey fight is probably under 20 seconds. So a minute is a long fight. It’s a lot of action. There will be a lot of punches thrown in, and there will be a lot of blood. It’s going to be fun, guys” he said. Ice Wars will debut with the eight-man ‘King of the Rink’ heavyweight tournament in Edmonton on May 21. It will be broadcast on FITE.
