The Badminton Association of Indonesia (PP PBSI) has officially opened the possibility of including non-national training center (non-Pelatnas) athletes in the Indonesian badminton squad for the 2026 Asian Games. This policy shift allows for a potential combination of players currently training within the national system and those operating independently.
By integrating athletes from outside the centralized training program, the association aims to strengthen the national team’s composition for the upcoming multi-sport event. This decision marks a strategic move to broaden the selection pool and ensure the country fields its most competitive roster for the 2026 Asian Games.
